Of course there is none because that's an approach to the issue that was rather a strange approach in the first place. systemctl disable wesnoth-1.12-server # would be the proper way But: It doesn't get enabled by default in the package, since the 1.8 times, 6 years ago.

I'll have to test that in an 16.04 environment, but as far as I can tell this shouldn't happen. > - there should be simple way to disable it (something like /etc/default/wesnoth) "systemctl disable wesnoth-1.12-server" is the simple way and works with every single service.
