Hi Ben,

I've had a look at this package and identified a few changes that I
think are required before it can be uploaded to wily.  Please find
attached a debdiff of the changes I've made so far.

There is one outstanding issue; namely, that debian/rules attempts to
key on the release version to decide whether or not to build --with
systemd.  This is incorrect for two reasons.  First, packages should
support all init systems, not just one, so that they don't have to be
upgraded in lockstep with the init system (and I've partially addressed
this in my patch, with changes to install both the upstart job and
systemd unit in the dh_installinit target).  Second, dh_systemd doesn't
exist at all in precise, so this package will fail to build on precise
no matter what due to an unsatisfied build dependency.

I'd like to know your thoughts on the best way to resolve this.
