I'm at this bug because my rsync server, which was working, failed to start rsyncd on reboot. Apparently the systemd service is disabled, the instuctions I had followed to enable the daemon are out of date, etc.
This is a silly amount of complexity and growing. Just split out a rsyncd package for those of us who want the daemon, and have it enable the daemon by default. Pick a directory, empty by default, and have the default /etc/rsyncd.conf export it, read-only. Make apt-get install rsyncd result in a fully working rsyncd starting point for the admin to tweak, rather than apt-get install rsync yielding a bunch of daemon bits and peices that can be cobbled together. -- see shy jo
