However, it appears that `systemctl enable` does not respect these files. Seems like a valid issue. As we do not ship any Debian specific modifications in that regard, it would be great if you can file this issue upstream at https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues as it should be handled there.

Bug#1004217: /bin/systemctl: Cannot enable units where the Install section is in a truncated override file
Package: systemd Version: 249.7-1+rpi1 Severity: normal File: /bin/systemctl Dear Maintainer, If one creates a unit with a name like `test-test.service`, one can put override files in the drop-in directory with the truncated name `test-.service.d`, and have them be picked up by systemd, at least for the most part. However, it appears that `systemctl enable` does not respect these files. See the below simple test case, with a unit file and override file: ``` $ systemctl --user cat test-test.service # /home/test/.config/systemd/user/test-test.service [Service] ExecStart=sleep 5000d # /home/test/.config/systemd/user/test-.service.d/override.conf [Install] WantedBy=default.target $ systemctl --user status test-test.service ○ test-test.service Loaded: loaded (/home/test/.config/systemd/user/test-test.service; static) Drop-In: /home/test/.config/systemd/user/test-.service.d └─override.conf Active: inactive (dead) $ systemctl --user enable test-test.service The unit files have no installation config (WantedBy=, RequiredBy=, Also=, Alias= settings in the [Install] section, and DefaultInstance= for template units). This means they are not meant to be enabled using systemctl. Possible reasons for having this kind of units are: ``` Clearly `systemctl cat` was able to locate the override file above, and therefore I had expected `systemctl enable` to take note of the override file's [Install] section. That would mean that `systemctl enable` would actually create a symlink from default.target.wants/test-test.service to test-test.service. At the very least, if this were expected behaviour (and it doesn't seem grossly unreasonable; I know I was doing something unusual to hit this!), I would have expected to see it mentioned in the paragraph about drop-in directories, and/or the section on "[Install] Section Options" in the systemd.unit(5) man page.
