Package: sysvinit
Version: (2.84-2)
Severity: Serious
Justification: Policy 11.7
sysvinit contains files in /etc that are not marked as conffiles.
This violates a must in Debian Policy, so is a Serious bug.
This is a mass bug submission, and has been discussed on debian-devel
starting at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2002/debian-devel-200201/msg02546.html
For details of which files in sysvinit are not marked as conffiles see
http://lintian.debian.org/reports/Tfile-in-etc-not-marked-as-conffile.html
If your maintainer scripts modify these files, they must not be shipped
in the package.
If your maintainer scripts do not modify these files then they must be marked
as conffiles.
Example configuration files should be placed in
/usr/share/doc/sysvinit/examples
See Debian Policy 11.7 for more information.

It's taken a while, but this is now done.
