Package: pptpd
Version: 1.4.0-8
pptpd.postint uses the following to identify whether a system
is using systemd as init:
if [ -x "$(which systemctl || true)" ] ; then
this doesn't work. the systemd package is an almost mandatory install
on debian due to dependencies these days, almost impossible to avoid
it even if you don't want it (i could purge it but then i'd lose about
half-a-dozen packages I want, plus another twenty or so I don't care
much about)- even a sysvinit box has systemctl installed, resulting in:
# dpkg --configure --pending

You need to check whether the systemd-sysv package is installed.
The easiest way to do that is to check if the directory
/usr/share/doc/systemd-sysv/ exists, e.g.:
if [ -d /usr/share/doc/systemd-sysv/ ] ; then
