[Bug 1462692] Re: /etc/init.d/screen-cleanup causes ordering cycle when package is removed

Axel: A local fix would be to not ship the /lib/systemd/system/screen-
cleanup.service link in the deb, but create it in postinst and remove it
in the postrm on purge.

But perhaps this should be discussed on http://lists.alioth.debian.org
/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-systemd-maintainers first? This problem
probably affects a handful of other packages. Maybe there is a really
cheap way to determine that an init.d script is "orphaned" in that way
so that the sysv-generator can ignore it. I can't think of any with the
current information that we have on the system; this would at least need
some additional help from dh_installinit/the maintainer scripts. But
maybe someone has a clever idea.
