No, a false bug report. Sorry.

Package: lintian
Version: 2.114.0
Severity: normal

Hi,

[208/5813]mh@drop:~/packages/ippl/build-area $ lintian ippl_1.4.14-12.2_amd64.deb
W: ippl: missing-systemd-service-for-init.d-script ippl [etc/init.d/ippl]
W: ippl: skip-systemd-native-flag-missing-pre-depends (does not satisfy init-system-helpers (>= 1.54~)) [postinst:19]
W: ippl: skip-systemd-native-flag-missing-pre-depends (does not satisfy init-system-helpers (>= 1.54~)) [prerm:5]
[209/5814]mh@drop:~/packages/ippl/build-area $ 

However, the Dependency IS there in the source and the binary package:

[209/5814]mh@drop:~/packages/ippl/build-area $ dpkg --ctrl-tarfile ippl_1.4.14-12.2_amd64.deb | tar --extract --to-stdout ./control | grep Depends
Depends: adduser (>> 3.51), logrotate, lsb-base (>= 3.0-6), init-system-helpers (>= 1.54~), libc6 (>= 2.32)
[210/5815]mh@drop:~/packages/ippl/build-area $

I think that's a false warning.

Greetings
Marc
