Dear Maintainer,
the kexec-tools package in trixie has lost its SysV scripts, because

Is it possible to take over at least /etc/init.d/kexec in o-s-s?
Without that script, the kexec mechanism is unusable under sysvinit, because
# kexec -l /vmlinuz --initrd=/initrd.img --reuse-cmdline
# init 6
results in a standard reboot, instead of a fast reboot the user expects.
Best regards,
g.b.

Hi,
I see that #1111802 has been fixed, and it looks like kexec-tools have
init scripts again, so I'm closing this bug.
Thanks,
Matthew
