The cvs package has supported systemd for years. There is
simply an inetd subpackage which provides support for xinetd
still.
If xinetd is left orpahaned and retired, dropping the inetd
subpackage from cvs might look something like:

I didn't file that as PR yet because it's not clear whether
xinetd will be adopted or not.
But it should be relatively easy for us (in the sense of
most any interested packager) to remove the xinetd dep from
cvs.

Why not split the cvs package like git and create a cvs-core package that actually contains the cvs executables/files and then only BR/require that from git/git-cvs? That would be the more immediate solution that prunes the affected packages from the xinetd orphaning by quite a lot.
