[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#1085999: samba package lacks a systemd service file for samba-ad-dc

[Eric Valette]

Package: samba
Version: 2:4.21.1+dfsg-1
Severity: normal



dpkg -L samba | grep init.d
/etc/init.d
/etc/init.d/nmbd
/etc/init.d/smbd
/etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc

dpkg -L samba | grep system
/usr/lib/systemd
/usr/lib/systemd/system
/usr/lib/systemd/system/nmbd.service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/smbd.service


With recent removal of systemV compatibility service, you get a lot of errors in dmesg

SysV service '/etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc' lacks a native systemd unit file. ~ Automatically generating a unit file for compatibility. Please update package to include a native systemd unit file, in order to make it safe, robust and future-proof. ! This compatibility logic is deprecated, expect removal soon. !

There a tens of theses...

So please add a /usr/lib/systemd/system/samba-ad-dc.service file.
