Package: systemd
Version: 229-4
Severity: normal
The old /etc/init.d/rc.local has
# Required-Start: $all
Our compat rc-local.service is imho started too early during boot.
Maybe it would be better if we changed that to Type=idle for better
compatibility with the old insserv/LSB based boot?

Given Martin's feedback, I'm closing this bug report.
Let's agree that the concept of $all is broken anyway and apparently we
managed a jessie release without a user bug report so far complaining
about rc-local.service being started too early.
