That's not the reason it failed. The reason was that, to start a build,
all of the build-dependencies necessary for the clean process, have to
be installed within the jenkins system (eg: not the cowbuilder chroot).
I already have dh-systemd packaged, so I simply apt-get install
dh-systemd in the jenkins system, and now it could build correctly.

Yes.

Nop, just installing it in the jenkins system.

Well, I don't have much experience with systemd myself, so checking that
it builds isn't enough: we shall also check that it does what is needed,
and that it boots the expected way.

But anyway, your commit is wrong, because it breaks the syslog thing
which we were discussing. We got to find a way to fix that before moving
ahead (this is used by at least cloudwatt).
