Now you're making it too easy for you by simply putting the blame back. Recommends always pulled in a lot of bloat, so I disabled this many releases ago, for a very reason, without any adverse effect *ever*. And now disabled *recommendations* make a system partly fail after upgrade. First: This shows that orphan-sysvinit-scripts should be pulled in as dependency and not as recommendation, at least with Bookworm. Which is a moot point because this is a bug report about rsyslogd. Second: This also shows that separating initscripts from the core packages has been a bad idea. You can't fix things with technology when politics are involved. :wq! PoC
