Hey! Thanks for getting in touch. I'm sorry, but I don't plan to work on any kind of sysvinit support for nftables. That Debian Policy bit is known to be flawed and a work in progress, to better reflect the reality of now-a-days Debian systems [0]. If you are aware of that, I wonder what is the purpose of this bug report. If you weren't aware of that, I'm glad now you are :-) Anyway, I'm closing the bug report as wontfix. regards.
