Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.13
Severity: normal

The new init.d-script-call-internal-API tag says:

W: libapache2-mod-shib2: init.d-script-call-internal-API etc/init.d/shibd
N: 
N:    The given init script call an internal API under /lib/init. /lib/init/rw
N:    has gone away, and the scripts in /lib/init/*.sh represent internal
N:    implementation details of initscripts. They are not public API for other
N:    packages to use. Nonetheless, some packages incorrectly reference those
N:    scripts, notably /lib/init/vars.sh.
N:    
N:    Severity: normal, Certainty: possible
N:    
N:    Check: init.d, Type: binary

but /etc/init.d/skeleton has:

# Load the VERBOSE setting and other rcS variables
. /lib/init/vars.sh

and then uses $VERBOSE extensively, and I don't see any other way for it
to be set.  This is inconsistent; if what skeleton is doing is wrong, then
that file needs to be updated and we need to provide better guidance in
the Lintian tag as to how $VERBOSE is supposed to be handled.
