** Description changed:

+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+ ksmbd-tools is completely unusable as the installation will fail with
+ the error:
+ 
+ Preparing to unpack .../ksmbd-tools_3.5.1-1build2_amd64.deb ...
+ Unpacking ksmbd-tools (3.5.1-1build2) ...
+ dpkg: error processing archive 
/var/cache/apt/archives/ksmbd-tools_3.5.1-1build2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
+  unable to open '/usr/lib/systemd/system/ksmbd.service.dpkg-new': No such 
file or directory
+ No apport report written because the error message indicates an issue on the 
local system
+ Errors were encountered while processing:
+  /var/cache/apt/archives/ksmbd-tools_3.5.1-1build2_amd64.deb
+ E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
+ 
+ [ Test Plan ]
+ 
+ install ksmbd-tools.
+ if its not fixed then the installation will fail.
+ 
+ With the fixed package the installation will succeed.
+ 
+ As a basic sanity test to check ksmbd starts:
+ 1. sudo mv /etc/ksmbd/ksmbd.conf.example /etc/ksmbd/ksmbd.conf
+ 2. sudo systemctl restart ksmbd
+ 3. sudo systemctl status ksmbd
+ 
+ The status of ksmbd service will be "Active: active (running)".
+ 
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+ 
+ There is no change in code and its only modyfing the path where the service 
file is installed. There is very minimum chance of any regression due to this 
change.
+ And as a worst case scenario, if the change has an adverse affect and ksmbd 
service fails to start then the user will not see any new problem as the 
current package fails to install.
+ 
+ [ Other Info ]
+ 
+ It was caused by the usrmerge when / and /usr were merged. And has been
+ fixed in Oracular and also in Debian by ksmbd-tools/3.5.2-3.
