[Bug 1827340] Re: swift-container package is missing Upstart and System V files for the container-sharder service

[Corey Bryant]

Hi Tytus and Dan,

Thanks for the patches Tytus. Always appreciate contributions!

Generally for the core openstack packages they don't follow the normal
sync from debian flow for a number of reasons and the packages tend to
differ quite a bit.

The swift package in Debian has already moved to systemd though, and
they went with a generated approach. To see what they did, pull-debian-
source swift and take a look at the debian/*init.in files and
debian/rules override_dh_installinit, override_dh_installsystemd.

I'll need to dig in deeper to understand if one approach is any better
than the other.

I'd like to make the switch one way or the other, but I'm not sure that
I want to do it at this point in the Focal cycle. I would prefer early G
cycle.

Thanks,
Corey
