It is difficult to help you without knowledge of the circumstances of
your setup and the exact error messages you're getting. I don't know
what "04" means here.
Generally speaking, when software gets a major upgrade (for skaware
that means when the *second* version number changes), as is the case
with lots of my packages last month, it is best to rebuild everything
cleanly, because major upgrade means possible compatibility break.
For s6-linux-init, you should rebuild it, but in this precise case,
despite the latest version being a major bump over the previous one,
you don't need to run s6-linux-init-maker again.
