Same here, its a core part of many software projects, not only web
based but also on embedded systems and micro-service related.

One of its authors, antirez, is an old friend and coding made of some
of us here. Redis is heavily inspired by minimalism, simplicity and
UNIX principles since its inception. We will contact upstream so they
notice the fact the Debian maintainers are removing a support which is
provided upstream, since redis does pack scripts for sysvinit that
should be left in place.

This episode is again of great shame on Debian maintainers, but it
should be addressed by upstream.
