We can drop it for systemd and busybox. Actually it has been limited to 
be used with sysvinit only from the packagegroup-core-boot.bb:

+ SYSVINIT_SCRIPTS = "${@bb.utils.contains('MACHINE_FEATURES', 'rtc', 
'${VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_base-utils-hwclock}', '', d)} \
+                    modutils-initscripts \
+                    init-ifupdown \
+                    ${VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_initscripts} \
                    "

+ RDEPENDS_${PN} = "\
+ ${@bb.utils.contains("DISTRO_FEATURES", "sysvinit", 
"${SYSVINIT_SCRIPTS}", "", d)} \
+ ...
+"

Please ignore my patches, they fix the issues for "busybox + 
initscrtipts" which won't be supported again.

Thanks
