Bug#931847: Boggus package-supports-alternative-init-but-no-init.d-script test?

[Laurent Bigonville <bigon@debian.org>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.16.0
Severity: important

Hi,

Isn't the new package-supports-alternative-init-but-no-init.d-script
test boggus (added by: #926471)?

The test is the following:

        if (   $file =~ m,etc/sv/([^/]+)/run$,
            or $file =~ m,lib/systemd/system/(.*)\.service,) {

Shouldn't that this be an "and"?

My understanding of the policy is that, if a package supports an
alternative init (other than systemd) it must also support sysvinit.

Also note that if the check is actually correct, this will create false
positive for all the systemd .service files not started at boot
(scheduled jobs, dbus activated,...).

Kind regards,

Laurent Bigonville
