A Policy should means that if there is some stronger reason (such as that adding a unit file would introduce new bugs), there is nothing requiring you to do so. It indicates that not having a unit file is a bug, but it's just a bug, and Debian packages are not expected to be bug-free. Other bugs may be more important. That said, if you'd like help with this, I or someone else following this thread may be willing to take a look and figure out a way to replicate the init script behavior. It's normally possible to handle /etc/default conffiles in systemd units, although it can be a little complicated. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
