Sure. I made the systemd service I introduced disabled by default. Since I don't know how to do that in sysvinit land and couldn't find the answer I made a cost-benefit call based on the believe that not many users exist in the intersection of using-sysvinit and running netperf as a server. Please note it was in non-free until recently. > It is still better to have LSB-style initscripts in their relevant package. > > I see you have closed #1039285.

If orphan-sysvinit-scripts didn't exist this may have tipped in favor of keeping it, but I decided placing it here (if you'll have it) and putting a note in netperf NEWS is a reasonable compromise, since I'm already adding a NEWS entry for the default disablement change.
