in my case the problem was having "inet_interfaces=<IPv4>" specified in main.cf. Booting with "init=/bin/sh" "postmulti -l -a" failed with: postmulti: fatal: parameter inet_interfaces: no local interface found for <IPv4> So /lib/systemd/system-generators/postfix-instance-generator failed to create /run/systemd/generator/postfix.service.wants. This seems to be a regression introduced by fixing #873957.
