linux-atm build-depends on initscripts. I don't see any reason why this
is necessary -- it builds fine without it and debian/rules does not do
anything weird which would need initscripts.

This was almost surely meant to be a binary dependency for the /run
transition in squeeze:

| linux-atm (1:2.5.1-1.3) unstable; urgency=low
| [...]
|   * Support sendsigs.omit.d/ in /run and depend on initscripts
|     >= 2.88dsf-13.3. (Closes: #633029)
|

But it was erroneously added as a build instead of a binary
dependency. Now that the /run transition is way past us, there is no
point on any initscripts dependency any more, so please just drop it.

Thanks for considering,

Martin
