Let's take the inverse view: which of these use the upstream sysvinit scripts directly ? The answer, as demonstrated below, is: none. > bind9 http://sources.debian.net/src/bind9/1:9.9.5.dfsg-5/debian/bind9.init/ > apache http://sources.debian.net/src/apache2/2.4.10-7/debian/apache2.init/ > sympa http://sources.debian.net/src/sympa/6.1.23~dfsg-1/debian/sympa.init/ > mailman http://sources.debian.net/src/mailman/1:2.1.18-1/debian/mailman.init/ > mysql http://sources.debian.net/src/mysql-5.5/5.5.39-1/debian/mysql-server-5.5.mysql.init/ > mariadb http://sources.debian.net/src/mariadb-10.0/10.0.14-3/debian/mariadb-server-10.0.mysql.init/ > postgres http://sources.debian.net/src/postgresql-common/163/debian/postgresql-common.postgresql.init/ > postfix http://sources.debian.net/src/postfix/2.11.3-1/debian/init.d/ > spamassassin http://sources.debian.net/src/spamassassin/3.4.0-3/debian/spamassassin.init/ > amavisd http://sources.debian.net/src/amavisd-new/1:2.10.1-1/debian/amavisd-new.amavis.init/ > clamav http://sources.debian.net/src/clamav/0.98.5~rc1%2Bdfsg-4/debian/clamav-daemon.init.in/ (I've only looked at current sid versions and checked in the debian/ directory. Feel free to run your own investigations using the fantastic sources.debian.net.) > Most come with sysvinit scripts, several come with their own startup > scripts (e.g., apachectl) that get dropped into rc.local. Not a one > comes with a native systemd service file The above IMHO demonstrates quite clearly one of the advantages of systemd over sysvinit: for all of the examples you took, Debian is currently using a Debian-specific sysvinit script (I haven't investigated the reasons though), all of which are quite redundant. They are not shared across distributions at all. So, the upstream examples you chose actually demonstrate that these were not targeting Debian enough for the Debian maintainers to use the provided init scripts (if these were even provided). (Note, I'm not claiming Debian will not need to modify the eventual systemd configuration files either, even if I think it's less probable.)
