[debian-mysql] Bug#765425: mysql-server-5.5: mysql-sever lacks a systemd .service file.

[Thayne Harbaugh]

Package: mysql-server-5.5
Version: 5.5.39-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   The mysql-server-5.5 .deb lacks a systemd .service file.

   * What led up to the situation?

     Saltstack (salt-master .deb) is unable to manage mysql-server on
     a system running systemd.  A /lib/systemd/system/mysql.service
     file will address this.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

     Potentially the salt systemd module can be expanded to manage
     services running in SysVinit compatibility mode.  Some simple
     tweaks of the salt module were insufficient.

     The /etc/init.d/mysql script is more sophisticated than most.  It
     does not lend itself to a simple .service implementation.

   * Additional information:

     There is a similar Fedora bug that has been addressed and closed:

       https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714426

     It appears this was addressed with a combination of a .service
     file as well as some additional scripts.
