Bug#1028388: Splitting 1028388 into separate issues

[Don Armstrong]

Control: clone 1028388 -1
Control: summary 1028388 rsyslog init script distributed by orphan-sysvinit-scripts doesn't work in some (?) cases.
Control: reassign -1 rsyslog
Control: retitle -1 Please restore the init script for ad-hocery, tests, etc.
Control: tag -1 wontfix
Control: severity -1 wishlist
Control: summary -1 rsyslog no longer distributes an init script; maintainer declines to reintroduce the init script.
Control: close -1

With the owner@ hat on:

This looks like two separate issues.

1) rsyslog doesn't provide the init script any more, which is totally up
to the maintainer (Michael Biebl) unless overridden by the TC. That bug
(-1) can be left wontfix, wishlist, and closed. Please do not reopen it
without a TC or RM decision.[1]

2) The init script distributed by orphan-sysvinit-scripts doesn't work
in some (?) cases. This should be fixed (or otherwise handled) by the
maintainer(s) of orphan-sysv-init scripts.

[Further messages sent privately to affected individuals.]

1: Probably didn't need to clone it, but I wanted to be clear for
everyone.
