Many SysV init scripts need the /etc/init.d/functions script. But this script is part of the initscripts package. As a result, the initscripts package should always be installed into the system to avoid errors when starting daemons. However, it makes no sense to install the initscripts package into a systemd based image, because what the init scripts provide has already been provided by the systemd. On the other hand, the functions script might be still needed in a systemd based image because other init scripts such as distcc might need it.
The above situation leads to a natural separation of the functions script from the initscripts package. And this patch does so. It separates the functions script into initscripts-functions packages.
