(Rationale: with systemd users apparently not requiring logs that survive a
crash, most users of this package in bookworm+ are expected to run other
inits -- and the package as-is is non-functional.)

I just installed a new box, and I see that rsyslog is not started, despite
orphan-init-scripts being installed (I'll need to find out why, busy rn).

Thus, evidently the hacks required for o-i-s to mess with conffiles on
installation of a different package are not robust enough.  This can be
argued to be a bug in o-i-s -- but all this complexity shouldn't be needed
in the first place.
