the last reply by Matthew on this topic was 4 weeks ago in the salsa MR3. Since I didn't receive any reply to my ping in this bug 2 weeks ago and since this is the last bug blocking my other work in Debian on GNU/Hurd, and because I think I am confident that this change cannot break user systems, I'm performing an NMU of orphan-sysvinit-scripts with maximum delay of 15 days. Please cancel the NMU if you think that this change is a bad idea (and please explain what I can do better). I have attached a debdiff and pushed the remaining changes to salsa MR3. Thanks! cheers, josch
