(Closes: #1019851) from this commit: commit 97f742b00553a4dd7ba681aefa4cc164ea263f71 Remove init.d-script-needs-depends-on-lsb-base and add lsb-base to obsolete-packages The functionality of lsb-base is in the Essential:yes set since Bullseye. The package itself is now an empty transitional package (because debootstrap doesn't understand the Provides relationship) which depends on the new provider of the functionality, sysvinit-utils, which is also in the Essential:yes set.
