My reading of that bug and also #734164 is that the initscripts were removed
because they were superseded, not because of any dropping of support for
non-systemd inits. kbd is deprecated and console-setup should be used.

I cannot find any breakage caused by the removal so I will close this
report. Please feel free to reopen or start a new bug if you have breakage.

Thanks

Mark

Version: 2.0.4-4

According to the changelog for 2.0.3-2:
"Stop shipping /etc/init.d/kbd and /etc/kbd/* (Closes: #796583)"

I guess text consoles are now impossible to blank now without systemd or
modifying /etc/rc.local (was already bad enough having to chase the
configuration files between packages)...
