Hi,

Well, but "systemctl enable" is still a systemctl command, so I'd expect
it to behave much more like "systemctl mask" than "update-rc.d enable".
I can understand that you'd want to suppress this output if I ran
"update-rc.d osspd disable". But that's not hard to do, it could just
call systemctl with -q.
Having "systemctl enable" be the only systemctl command that's quiet per
default is an unexpected inconsistency.

Kind regards
Ralf
