I have sysvinit-core installed and orphan-sysvinit-scripts was not pulled in

Yeah, it’s not.

As I'm learning from a discussion in bug #1055466, this is due to orphan-sysvinit-scripts 
"only" being recommended and not a hard dependency.

Yes, it's a Recommends: which means it'll be pulled in on most upgrades (I agree it would have been better to have got something into the release notes; I don't know if they are still taking updates for the bookworm release notes, but do feel free to propose some text for them).

If you find future init scripts missing that aren't in orphan-sysvinit-scripts and the relevant package maintainer isn't willing to restore them, do file a bug report (ideally with the requested details from the README - https://salsa.debian.org/matthew/orphan-sysvinit-scripts/ ) against o-s-s and we can get them into trixie.

I had thought we'd caught nearly all of the scripts from bookworm, but if there are missing ones there we could try and get a fix into the next point release.

[are we at the point where this bug report can be closed? I feel like there might be a bug report with patch if you want the release notes updating, and/or bugs for particular missing init scripts]

Regards,

Matthew
