Package: e2fsprogs Version: 1.44.5-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
for long time e2fsprogs were essential, and bin:initscripts used /sbin/logsave from e2fsprogs. Nowdays, e2fsprogs are not essential, so initscripts switched to using /sbin/logsave on best-effort basis (use if present), which is suboptimal. Upstream maintainer of sysvinit imported sources of logsave from e2fsprogs into sysvinit, and now initscripts can again be sure, that logsave is present, if we settle question, who will provide /sbin/logsave. So here I propose, that e2fsprogs no longer installs logsave, and it switch owner to bin:sysvinit-utils. Not the best solution, given there is desire (but not much of action) of dropping essential flag from bin:sysvinit-utils. Alternatively, one of us could build bin:logsave. Best regards, one of sysvinit Debian maintainers. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers buildd-unstable APT policy: (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'buildd-experimental'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=eo.utf8, LC_CTYPE=eo.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=eo.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: runit (via /run/runit.stopit) Versions of packages e2fsprogs depends on: ii libblkid1 2.33.1-0.1 ii libc6 2.28-7 ii libcom-err2 1.44.5-1 ii libext2fs2 1.44.5-1 ii libss2 1.44.5-1 ii libuuid1 2.33.1-0.1 Versions of packages e2fsprogs recommends: pn e2fsprogs-l10n <none> Versions of packages e2fsprogs suggests: pn e2fsck-static <none> pn fuse2fs <none> pn gpart <none> ii parted 3.2-24 -- no debconf information
