Hi Joern, you did nothing wrong.  Severity and justification looks quite
right to me.

Bug reporters are free to choose any severity they think applies.  It's
the maintainer setting it straight if she doesn't agree.

I'm just asking debian-devel how to resolve this.  I heard systemd is

the inittab interface.
