Debian supports (or rather will probably support) three init systems: * systemd does not use logsave to save the fsck log if /var/log is not mounted yet, but instead "just pipes the stdout of fsck to syslog which ends up in dmesg if syslog is not yet running" (thanks to whoever explained this in #systemd). * sysvinit and upstart depend on the package initscripts, which depends on sysvinit-utils. logsave does not use any libraries except libc. Provided that Ted Ts'o agrees, please consider moving logsave to sysvinit-utils. Regards Carsten P.S.: There is already a bug about essentialness filed against e2fsprogs: #474540
