Hi,

The debdiff adds an error handler for the postinst script generated by
dh_installinit.  But the error seen in the bug (#862988) shows an error
for starting the service via systemd.

I do not understand how adding an error handler for the sysvinit script
would fix that bug.  Could you perhaps help me spot what I am missing?

Thanks,
~Niels
