lsb for Debian
--------------
This package used to provide the Linux Standard Base on Debian systems.
The LSB is a specification for allowing the same binary package to be used
on multiple distributions.
Since version 9.20150826, this package stopped providing the compatibility
LSB packages and only provided lsb-base and lsb-release.
By late 2022 (before Bookworm), lsb-base has been subsumed into
sysvinit-utils while lsb-release has its remaining functionality
reimplemented without the old complexity.
The lsb-base package is gone save for this empty stub, needed only
because of installer quirks. It can be purged from your system.
lsb-base dependency
-------------------
In the past, packages including an init script were required to Depend
on lsb-base. This is not needed anymore as the included files have been
a part of the Essential set for a while. Thus, you can clean it away
-- but despite lintian being a bit dramatic, there is no rush in doing
so as Provides: make that dependency harmless.
