Hi,

I happened to look at this page and spotted multiple problems (and it
had your contact information on it):
https://packages.debian.org/sid/arm64/sysvinit-utils/filelist

1. The file list is not correct
   - eg. /usr/sbin/service et.al. are not in the package (anymore since
   several years).
2. It doesn't say with actual version of the package it's showing
   only a vague "<package> in sid" statement so it's not obvious when
   the filelist is outdated information.

Compare this other archs page which seems more up to date:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/sysvinit-utils/filelist

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson

Hi,

>   several years).

The condition described here will potentially be fixed by the second
commit ("Test for link on suite level") in my recent merge request.
[1] My testing there confirmed a suspicion that the file lists were
not being updated at all. For a longer explanation, please have a look
at Bug#977006 or Bug#977743.

This bug should be evaluated when the MR [1] has been accepted. Thanks!

Kind regards
Felix Lechner

Hello,

Bug #923974 in www.debian.org reported by you has been fixed in the Git repository.
You can see the commit message below and you can check the diff of the fix at:

https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/packages/-/commit/9186dd45f3ea111b309c580b11674689dd5f2c4d

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Test for link on suite level when avoiding duplicates; restore service. (Closes: #923974)

This commit changes the logic of existing code. The author was not sure if the
existing code performed as it should. The '-l' file test on the Contents.gz data
files will not capture symbolic links for suite aliases on the suite level.

Looks at the suite level instead.
