Version: 1.47
Severity: serious

Hi,

to fix #856429 I need to handle a unit with an escaped character
correctly in the maintainer scripts generated by dh_systemd*.

Unfortunately deb-systemd-invoke does not quote the unit name
properly in a systemctl call, so it fails to handle the unit.

A patch is attached, with it deb-systemd-invoke works as expected.
I did not test my changes to t/001-deb-systemd-helper.t as I don't
have the necessary perl module installed and didn't want to mess
with CPAN. But I'd assume its correct.

Thanks for fixing,

Bernd
