[Bug 1800676] Re: Ubuntu swift packages lack systemd unit files

[Neil Wilson]

For example proxy is LSB generated, not systemd native

$ systemctl status swift-proxy
● swift-proxy.service - LSB: Swift proxy server
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/swift-proxy; generated)
   Active: active (running) since Fri 2018-10-26 15:13:07 UTC; 1 weeks 2 days ago
     Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)

   CGroup: /system.slice/swift-proxy.service
           ├─9718 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/swift-proxy-server /etc/swift/proxy-server.conf
           ├─9728 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/swift-proxy-server /etc/swift/proxy-server.conf
           └─9729 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/swift-proxy-server /etc/swift/proxy-server.conf

Similarly if you look at the package file list of any of the swift built
packages in ubuntu you will see SysV scripts, Upstart conf files, but no
native systemd unit files.

Title:
  Ubuntu swift packages lack systemd unit files

Status in swift package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The Debian upstream packages for swift have had Systemd unit support
  since

  swift (2.6.0-2) experimental; urgency=medium

    [ Ondřej Nový ]
    * Added Debian tests.
    * Removed swift-init.
    * Systemd support.
    * Added container-sync config files.
    * Changed all dependencies to same version of swift package.
    * Changed shell of "swift" user to /bin/false.
    * Add user "swift" to group "adm", not replace group list.
    * Standards-Version is 3.9.7 now (no change).
    * Fixed Vcs URL.

  but none of that appears to have made it past the merge process into
  the Ubuntu versions. We are now in the situation where the Bionic and
  Cosmic packages are still relying upon dated init scripts, and contain
  obsolete Upstart init files.

  Is there a case for dropping the diff completely?
