Package: debhelper
Version: 11.1.3
Severity: important
dh_installsystemd masks services on "remove". The background here is, that
SysV init scripts are conffiles which are only removed on "purge".
Upon re-installation, this mask is removed again.
With dh_systemd_enable, this was done before dh_installinit, so the mask
was gone when invoke-rc.d tried to start the service.
With compat 11 and dh_installsystemd, the dh_installsystemd helper is
called after dh_installinit. As a result, invoke-rc.d will try to start
a service which is still masked.
