  This patch makes me wonder about two things.

1. The 3 packages that currently install unit files all have this mkdir 
-p of multi-user.target.wants. Shouldn't that be done by the core 
infrastructure as part of the skeleton?

2. For sysv-init, we use /etc/init.d directly instead of the usual 
/etc/rcX.d with symlinks to init.d. Shouldn't we do something similar for 
systemd, i.e. put the unit files directly in multi-user.target.wants and 
begone with the symlinks?

  Both of these suggestions are obviously not part of this patch, but 
rather separate cleanup work, since they affect dropbear, lighttpd and 
openssh as well.

  Arnout
