Thanks for testing.

The target selection was based on what's upstream in the debian
packaging.

I'll pull together the paperwork for SRU'ing that fix into Xenial.

Title:
  watchdogd doesn't start on boot

Status in watchdog package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 15.04
  Release:	15.04

  watchdog:
    Installed: 5.14-3
    Candidate: 5.14-3
    Version table:
   *** 5.14-3 0
          500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/universe amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Expected:

  Watchdog daemon starts on system boot.

  Current:

  After updating from Utopic to Vivid the watchdog daemon doesn't start. A manual service watchdog start after boot up starts the daemon normally.
  There seems to be a problem with the transition of the init scripts from Upstart to SystemD.
