Description

When /etc/rc.start_packages is run, for example at boot time, it performs a package sync with sync_package() and then its service is started with start_service(). The problem is that packages may already start the service on their own during their sync_package() call, thus leading to multiple starts unintentionally.

Looks like one line of the fix didn't make it into the final commit. Will push a correction momentarily after re-testing.
