/lib/init/vars.sh is currently shipped by initscripts and we were actually discussing that moving that to sysvinit-utils because moving it to sysv-rc doesn't really work (see pitti's bug report in that regard). This doesn't solve the problem though, that such SysV init scripts have a hard dependency on a sysvinit provided package, even if they ship a native service file and we'd have to keep that package installed forever in the future. The redirection of /etc/init.d/foo <action> to systemctl <action> foo would fail otherwise. We could accept that breakage, but maybe we can do better. Moving the inclusion of /lib/lsb/init-functions before /lib/init/init-functions-d was an idea in that regard. Do you have any concerns regarding that change?
