Patch v2:
Instead of adding the /etc/default location, change all /etc/sysconfig files to 
their /etc/default counterpart since the sysconfig folder does not exist in 
Debian based distros.

** Patch added: "Debdiff for xenial v2"

Title:
  Systemd unit file reads settings from wrong path

Status in pacemaker package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in pacemaker source package in Xenial:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Systemd Unit file doesn't read any settings by default

  [Description]
  The unit file shipped with the Xenial pacemaker package tries to read 
environment settings from /etc/sysconfig/ instead of /etc/default/. The result 
is that settings defined in /etc/default/pacemaker are not effective.
  Since the /etc/default/pacemaker file is created with default values when the 
pacemaker package is installed, we should source that in the systemd unit file.

  [Test Case]
  1) Deploy a Xenial container:
      $ lxc launch ubuntu:xenial pacemaker
  2) Update container and install pacemaker:
      root@pacemaker:~# apt update && apt install pacemaker -y
  3) Change default pacemaker log location:
      root@pacemaker:~# echo "PCMK_logfile=/tmp/pacemaker.log" >> 
/etc/default/pacemaker
  4) Restart pacemaker service and verify that log file exists:
      root@pacemaker:~# systemctl restart pacemaker.service
      root@pacemaker:~# ls -l /tmp/pacemaker.log
      ls: cannot access '/tmp/pacemaker.log': No such file or directory

  After fixing the systemd unit, changes to /etc/default/pacemaker get picked 
up correctly:
      root@pacemaker:~# ls -l /tmp/pacemaker.log
      -rw-rw---- 1 hacluster haclient 27335 Mar  7 20:46 /tmp/pacemaker.log

  
  [Regression Potential]
  The regression potential for this should be very low, since the configuration 
file is already being created by default and other systemd unit files are using 
the /etc/default config. In case the file doesn't exist or the user removed it, 
the "-" prefix will gracefully ignore the missing file according to the 
systemd.exec manual [0].
  Nonetheless, the new package will be tested with autopkgtests and the fix 
will be validated in a reproduction environment.
