This is something we are tracking, because systemd is dropping support
for the systemd-sysv-generator in v258. Debian also has a report
tracking these packages, and bugs open to get native systemd services
defined:
https://people.debian.org/~zeha/missing_systemd_service_by_source.html.
We will need to have some kind of upgrade logic for packages that have
not made the final switch by then.

Title:
Systemd service for packages without support
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
This bug is a little (just a little!?) crazy: First I done some shell-
fu:
apt-file search /lib/systemd/system/|grep service|cut -d: -f1|uniq >
systemd_service.txt
apt-file search /etc/init.d/|cut -d: -f1|uniq > sysvinit_service.txt
diff systemd_service.txt sysvinit_service.txt|grep '^\+' >just_sysvinit.txt
The first command created a list with the packages with systemd
services. I considered as systemd service any package with a .service
file under /lib/systemd/system/.
The second command created a list with the packages with sysvinit
services. I considered a sysvinit service any package with a file
under /etc/init.d/.
The third command compares the two files and only select the packages
with sysvinit service, but without a correspondent systemd service.
This packages should have support for systemd too because systemd is
now native on new Ubuntu releases. I don't think need hurry to change
all packages because sysvinit support on systemd is solid, but I think
we need to think about this.
