This line wrapping is... weird. :F

I can no longer reproduce the segfault I alluded to in that bug report;
I guess I'll reopen it later if I see it again.

Nitpick: does this comment accomplish anything?

Shouldn't the util-linux dependency exist in lsbinitscripts instead of
lsb?

There's also a bash dependency in /etc/init.d/functions.lsbinitscripts
that probably needs to get added, or a patch created to eliminate it.
Should I file a new bug about it?
