Citeren Frans de Boer <[email protected]>:
Alas, I get a bit tired: every time we make an update, all the
service files are overwritten with the files the clamav team
thinks it's the best. So, every time I have to copy my
proper/working/correct files over the unwanted updates. Rather
annoying.
Please, build-in a check to avoid overwriting.

System files are *supposed* to be overwritten with every update. If
you need to make changes, use
systemctl edit <foo>.service
This will create /etc/systemd/system/foo.service.d/override.conf
file, where you can make the necessary changes. You should *never*
touch the files in /usr/lib/systemd. See 'man 5 systemd-system.conf'
for an explanation where to make local modifications.

Great, so if I am provided with service files that do not properly
work - like the clamav case - I need to overwrite them every time, or
follow your pointer - of which I was not aware. Luckily I always keep
a backup of the changed service files, learned my lessons early from
former projects who thought they knew what service file is good for
me.
No, if you create local override in /etc/systemd/, it should stay there
unchanged.
What is supposed to be overwritten at each upgrade is the /lib/systemd file.
Note that if you create manual overwrites, you should take care of them,
because changes in provide.
Only if anything overwrites files in /etc/systemd/, there may be an error in
clamav distribution or package distribution.
Debian for example takes care about config files in /etc and provides manual
and automatic ways to update them at package upgrade.
I am not sure whether it applies for systemd files, I guess not.
