[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#1085617: samba package has obsolete file /etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc

[richardn]

Package: samba
Version: 2:4.21.1+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: richardn26 at gmail.com

System has samba package version 2:4.21.1+dfsg-1 installed, but does not have samba-ad-dc installed.

System still has the file

/etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc

which looks as though it should have been moved to the samba-ad-dc package

There are also these symlinks to this file
/etc/rc0.d/K01samba-ad-dc
/etc/rc1.d/K01samba-ad-dc
/etc/rc2.d/S01samba-ad-dc
/etc/rc3.d/S01samba-ad-dc
/etc/rc4.d/S01samba-ad-dc
/etc/rc5.d/S01samba-ad-dc
/etc/rc6.d/K01samba-ad-dc

(I noticed this because systemd has started nagging

systemd-sysv-generator[57646]: SysV service '/etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc' lacks a native systemd unit file. ~ Automatically generating a unit file for compatibility. Please update package to include a native systemd unit file, in order to make it safe, robust and future-proof. ! This compatibility logic is deprecated, expect removal soon. !

Perhaps this should be fixed in the samba-ad-dc package too)
