s.random is substituted by v.random (writes vector points).

Updates in general:
Raster only: 
add directory to 5.7
add files from 5.0 to tools/link.conf
write Makefile (use Makefile from other module as example)

Sites:
If sites are used in module, some small changes are required, 
v.random, s.in/out.ascii are examples how to use
G_site* functions in 5.7.

Vectors require usually much more changes.
