Dear maintainer,
minetest-server dropped its init script in the latest version
(https://salsa.debian.org/games-team/minetest/-/commit/b4a3c331810668f75552f0a7e7d0a4e9cd401541)
AFAICS, this hasn't been uploaded, so now is an ideal time to ask for them to
revert the change with an explanation why.
The commit says
Debian now primarily uses systemd, so reduce maintenance burden a bit.
So there is acceptance that non-systemd Debian still exists and it doesn't
reduce the maintenance burded, it just transfers and increases it elsewhere!
Hi Mark,
you're right. I filed #1095068 to ask the maintainers to revert this.
The version with the removed init script is currently in NEW pending
review.
best,
werdahias
