Upstreams shouldn't hard-code this directory but rather make this
configurable.

systemd even ships a configure.ac snippet for that, hoping to achieve
some consistency among projects
See section "Installing Systemd Service Files":

PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG
AC_ARG_WITH([systemdsystemunitdir],
        AS_HELP_STRING([--with-systemdsystemunitdir=DIR], [Directory for
systemd service files]),
        [], [with_systemdsystemunitdir=$($PKG_CONFIG
--variable=systemdsystemunitdir systemd)])
if test "x$with_systemdsystemunitdir" != xno; then
        AC_SUBST([systemdsystemunitdir], [$with_systemdsystemunitdir])
fi
AM_CONDITIONAL(HAVE_SYSTEMD, [test -n "$with_systemdsystemunitdir" -a
"x$with_systemdsystemunitdir" != xno ])


You can then build-depend on either systemd, to get the default
directory from systemd.pc, or add
--with-systemdsystemunitdir=/lib/sytemd/system to your configure flags
in debian/rules as I e.g. do in my packages, e.g. rsyslog [2], if you
want to avoid the systemd build-dependency.

Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the
universe are pointed away from Earth?
