This Lintian check is also a false positive for e2fsprogs, where it's triggering 4 false positive Lintian errors.
Per https://lintian.debian.org/tags/package-supports-alternative-init-but-no-init.d-script.html: This lintian tag has: Emitted (non-overridden): 787, overridden: 22, total: 809 An update to override these 4 false positives for e2fsprogs is currently stuck in the NEW queue (due to a new binary package), and is not included in these statistics. Certainly Lintian's claim that this Lintian error is "certain" is completely false. - Ted
