So it must not be started after `apt install radvd`.

The default configuration should be:

interface <I> {
        AdvSendAdvert on;
        prefix ::/64 {};
};

Interface <I> should be asked by debconf during installation process.



But really there is one more issue, prompted me to open this bug:
I've dist-upgraded the host, with configured radvd. From stretch
with sysvinit to buster with systemd. After dist-upgrade I was need to
enable radvd manually with systemctl enable radvd.service.
