lsb-base as of version 11.5 and as present in Debian/testing AKA bookworm is a transitional package (depending on sysvinit-utils). As of lintian >=2.116.0 a dependency on lsb-base is considered an error: | E: ngcp-rtpengine-daemon: depends-on-obsolete-package Depends: lsb-base (>= 3.0-6) | E: ngcp-rtpengine-recording-daemon: depends-on-obsolete-package Depends: lsb-base (>= 3.0-6) Now having lintian 2.116.1 in Debian/testing AKA bookworm our package builds fail because of this. Since we still have init script support and references to /lib/lsb/init-functions, let's depend on either sysvinit-utils or lsb-base.
