Package: orphan-sysvinit-scripts
Severity: normal
Control: affects -1 uuid-runtime

Hi,

uuid-runtime ships a sysvinit script for uuidd. This is not 
well-supported upstream anymore and has some extra build-time 
complication in src:util-linux. I'll drop the init script from the 
uuid-runtime package.

I -guess- that not very many sysvinit users will care about uuidd, 
but maybe they do.

Consider including the last init script in orphan-sysvinit-scripts.

Thanks,
Chris
