Thanks for fixing this in Devuan by restoring the initscript!

FYI, the upstream Debian maintainer has now kindly merged my proposed
patches to achieve the same so we can hope to see this in a future
release and may then wish to undo the local change to minimise
differences:

I am pleased to report that he also merged my proposed runscript for
pcscd.
