If there's a systemd unit, the init script is redundant, confusing, and possibly dangerous. It should not exist in the first place, perhaps except as a thin wrapper around the corresponding systemd command.
- seba_dos1 5y agoIf the package maintainer wants to support systemd-less systems out there, I don't see a reason to not let them to.

- yrro 5y agoIf you invoke the init script on a system booted with systems then it does indeed wrap the equivalent systemctl command.
