While it would be great to have a native systemd service file for mysql,
this information is plain incorrect:

You can certainly depend within a .service file on a sysv init script

Since the SysV init script is named /etc/init.d/mysql, you'd have to use
something like


[Unit]
Description=my awesome daemon
After=mysql.service


If mysql-service ships a native systemd .service file, it should ensure
to align the names, i.e. use mysql.service and /etc/init.d/mysql

If the mysql maintainer need more information, please poke us (the
