Hi,

I happened to look at this page and spotted multiple problems (and it
had your contact information on it):
https://packages.debian.org/sid/arm64/sysvinit-utils/filelist

1. The file list is not correct
   - eg. /usr/sbin/service et.al. are not in the package (anymore since
   several years).
2. It doesn't say with actual version of the package it's showing
   only a vague "<package> in sid" statement so it's not obvious when
   the filelist is outdated information.

Compare this other archs page which seems more up to date:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/sysvinit-utils/filelist

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
