FWIW, because Focal's deb-systemd-invoke doesn't use --quiet we end up
getting a clearer error there:
# dpkg-reconfigure krb5-kdc
Job for krb5-kdc.service failed because the control process exited with error
code.
See "systemctl status krb5-kdc.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Title:
Cannot configure krb5-kdc on Ubuntu Jammy 22.04.01, "Could not execute
systemctl: at /usr/bin/deb-systemd-invoke line 142."
Status in init-system-helpers package in Ubuntu:

Status in krb5 package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
I have a fresh install of Ubuntu Server 22.04.01 LTS. After
installing the server and running all updates, I run the following
command:
apt -y install slapd ldap-utils schema2ldif sasl2-bin
libsasl2-modules-gssapi-mit krb5-kdc-ldap krb5-admin-server krb5-kdc
This will be installing krb5-kdc 1.19.2-2.
This is in preparation for setting up an OpenLDAP server, a Kerberos
server with an LDAP backend, and saslauthd for pass-through
authentication. krb5-kdc was auto-selected when running the steps in
the guide here in my development environment:
https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/service-kerberos-with-openldap-backend
When installing that, I get the following in the output:
Setting up krb5-kdc (1.19.2-2) ...
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/krb5-kdc.service
→ /lib/systemd/system/krb5-kdc.service.
Could not execute systemctl: at /usr/bin/deb-systemd-invoke line 142.
I do get the prompts for the realm, kdc, and admin server hostnames,
and they are reflected in /etc/krb5.conf. If I then run the
following:
dpkg-reconfigure krb5-kdc
I am prompted for whether I want the package to create the Kerberos
KDC configuration automatically, and when I say yes, it then repeats
the following error:
Could not execute systemctl: at /usr/bin/deb-systemd-invoke line 142.
I cannot find any further debug in the syslog or anything to indicate
what the root cause is; the list of packages here are all installed
together on a separate development server where I experimented with
the configuration I will be deploying here in production so I don't
think it's incompatible packages in the install list, but I am open to
feedback on that.
