Thanks for this. However, as discussed on #devuan-dev, the accountsservice
daemon is started by DBus activation. That seems to be working fine in my
testing, so I don't think the package requires an initscript.

Do feel free to reopen if you think I have missed something and this requires
reconsideration.

Thanks.
