Package: initscripts
Version: 3.08-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

initscripts 3.08 needs to be backported to bookworm, as the systemd version
that removed the udev init script and forced initscripts to take over it was
already backported.

Anyone (such as me) running sysvinit and upgraded the systemd related packages
to bookworm-backports will end up with no running udev, breaking things like
persistent device naming and automatic loading of device driver modules.

   * What led up to the situation?

     systemd package removed the init script for udev, and in #1042082
     it was suggestedd that initscripts take it over.
     Both changes were merged and pushed to unstable. New version of
     systemd was backported to bookworm. initscripts was not backported.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

     I upgraded systemd related packages to 254 from bookworm-backports.
     I run sysvinit instead of systemd.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

     udev daemon no longer runs after reboot. Consistent device naming
     and device driver module autoloading no longer works.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

     udev daemon should still be run.

I grabbed the udev init script from
     
     
https://salsa.debian.org/systemd-team/systemd/-/blob/6e720b91dd837b71dd81c1d959b21f1b0a48ae29/debian/udev.init

and installed it manually for now, but this kind of surprise shouldn't
happen.
