Bug#1038903: initscripts: orphan-sysvinit-scripts needs to be a prerequisite, not optional.

Hi,

sysvinit-core in bookworm Recommends: orphan-sysvinit-scripts ; have you 
told apt to ignore recommends?

I think I agree with others who have said that it wouldn't be 
appropriate for all sysvinit systems to install orphan-sysvinit-scripts 
(which would warrant a Depends: ); obviously that might change if we end 
up with more init scripts in it.

I agree that a note in the release notes might be warranted (it may or 
may not be possible to get them updated now).

Regards,

Matthew
