How about installing the package locally (or in a chroot/VM) and check

Not in a chroot: chroots don't have an init system (systemd or otherwise). If
you don't use systemd on actual hardware for whatever reason,
This is indeed my case.
then you'll need to test systemd units on a virtual machine that boots using systemd, or
a "full system" container that boots using systemd.
This was my fear.
lxc/lxd/incus containers normally boot a full system using a full init system
(systemd or sysv-rc). Docker containers normally do not. Podman and
systemd-nspawn containers can be used either way.
So now I have to find/install a either a virtual machine or a container.
