If there is nothing requiring it to be part of the initscripts
package, I would recommend it being done by another package, closer to
the debugfs support.  The reason is to reduce the complexity of
initscripts, and keep the changes needed for debugs close to the
packages using it.

Are there packages in debian using debugfs?  I would recommend adding
an init.d script to one of those packages instead of adding it to
initscripts.

Or, is it enough for the users of debugfs to add an entry to
/etc/fstab?

If you have a suggestion for a package, please reassign this bug
there.

Happy hacking,
