Hi,

At some point between squeeze and wheezy initscript started initialising the 
RANDOM_SEED file in its postinst by basically doing the equivalent of a 
"service urandom start". This feature doesn't actually seem to have been 
integrated into the systemd package - which I personally consider it to be a 
regression.

Could you please then initialise RANDOM_SEED at the package installation 
time?

TIA.

Cheers,
