Source: bup
Version: 0.22a-1
Severity: normal
Your package is currently using/lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d
which is now deprecated and pending removal. Please update your
package to use /run/sendsigs.omit.d with a versioned dependency
on initscripts, as detailed below.
An overview of the /run transition and its current progress is
available at http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/RunDirectory
Basically, it's now in both testing and unstable, and the next
phase of the transition is to migrate all users of /lib/init/rw
over to /run and then remove /lib/init/rw entirely for wheezy
(as soon as this transition is complete).
Your package is one of the users of sendsigs.omit.d listed here:
http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/RunDirectory#Packages_using_.2BAC8-lib.2BAC8-init.2BAC8-rw
Recommendations for how to do the transition may be found here:
http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/RunDirectory#How_to_transition_from_.2BAC8-lib.2BAC8-init.2BAC8-rw_to_.2BAC8-run.3F
For sendsigs.omit.d, we would recommend that you:
* Depend on initscripts (>= 2.88dsf-13.3)
* Replace *all* usage of /lib/init/rw with /run
* Move all files in /lib/init/rw to /run in the package postinst, for
example:
if [ -f /lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d/foo ]; then
mv /lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d/foo /run/sendsigs.omit.d/foo
fi
bup only uses sendsigs.omit.d in its examples, so just updating them
should be sufficient--you shouldn't need to do any actual transitioning,
though it may be worth documenting this in case any of your users need
to manually update their scripts, which will break if not updated,
e.g. in NEWS.Debian.
Regards,
Roger

Yes, sorry for the false positive! I'll close the bug.
