Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: splashy

/etc/init.d/splashy refers to /etc/inittab, which does not exist, when
trying to regenerate the number of splash steps. Updating the number of
splash steps fails because of this.

Line 68 of /etc/init.d/splashy reads:

RLVL=`sed -n 's/id:\([2345]\):initdefault:/\1/ p' /etc/inittab`

grepping for any instances of the term inittab in /etc returns the same
line in three other scripts.

rc0.d/K01splashy:        RLVL=`sed -n 's/id:\([2345]\):initdefault:/\1/ p' 
/etc/inittab`
rc6.d/K01splashy:        RLVL=`sed -n 's/id:\([2345]\):initdefault:/\1/ p' 
/etc/inittab`
rcS.d/S03splashy:        RLVL=`sed -n 's/id:\([2345]\):initdefault:/\1/ p' 
/etc/inittab`

It appears to be trying to ascertain the default runlevel. How could
this be done using the current init system?
