Hi, Continuing our discussions in #debian-systemd, here's what need to happen.
<ah> openrc (stable + sid): add Depends: sysvinit-core, Drop Provides: sysv-rc <mbiebl_> plus depends on initscripts, to be safe <ah> openrc (sid/stretch): replace Recommends: init-system-helpers with Pre-Depends: init-system-helpers (>= 1.29) and add Depends: initscripts <ah> systemd-sysv: Make Conflicts against openrc versioned << y.z. Benda, if you push such changes, I'll sponsor the uploads. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
