Thanks for the heads up! I tend to think initscripts are better owned by distributions rather than upstreams, for various reasons. I propose a fresh initscript for uuid - would be grateful if you could consider including it to replace the upstream one: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/util-linux/-/merge_requests/45 Is it the generation of content in the debian directory that caused the unwanted complications? I wonder if this solution avoids that? Thanks, Andrew
