Hi,

a user just reported on #debian-systemd, that the quota package failed
to upgrade:

Failed to issue method call: Unit rpcbind.service failed to load: No
such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status
rpcbind.service' for details.
invoke-rc.d: initscript quotarpc, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing package quota (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
 status 6
 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
 and in systemctl status:
  Loaded: error (Reason: No such file or directory)

Looking more closely, it seems the quota package only suggests the
rpcbind package, yet the quotarpc.service contains:

Requires=rpcbind.service
After=rpcbind.service

Requires means, the service will fail to start if the dependency is not
available.

You either need to add a hard dependency on the rpcbind package or you
should demote the Requires to Wants.

Cheers,
Michael
