Could you please explain me how it could cause double effort as the
initscript the the dirmngr package is shipping is _already_ debian
specific and that I don't see any initscript shipped by upstream in the

The initscript had to be fixed anyway, I could indeed have also added a
systemd sevice file but I didn't think it will fit a NMU.
