What Daniel Kahn Gillmor actually said was:
If anyone wants to propose specific patches to the debian packaging to
either have the main libreswan package automatically support sysvinit
(or any other initsystem) or produce a libreswan-sysvinit (or
libreswan-runit, etc) binary package, and that the patch author
volunteers to help test and maintain that system integration work over
time, i'd be open to reviewing and incorporating reasonable changes into
the debian packaging.
Which seems pretty reasonable to me.
So it would be better if Sam Protsenko offered to help the Debian
maintainer in including and testing the scripts for sysvinit.
Apparently Kahn Gillmor requires more: he requires the commitment
of a person as a quasi-maintainer to do the job of maintaining the init
scripts for the package on the long term. This means Debian maintainers
are no longer in charge of maintaining init files other than systemd's.
I doubt we could see one of these maintainers accept to maintain
sysvinit scripts and ask the users to take care themself of maintaining
systemd init files.
