Subject: start-stop-daemon sends bad signals
Date: Sun, 18 Jan 1998 23:26:35 +0100
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.19

# strace start-stop-daemon --stop --signal HUP --exec /bin/cat
	...
kill(27796, SIGQUIT)                    = 0
	...
# strace start-stop-daemon --stop --signal STOP --exec /bin/cat
	...
kill(27799, SIGTERM)                    = 0
	...

	Apparently, it sends wrong signals.  It works OK when using
numbers instead of signal names.
