Hm, not sure. Imho packages shipping a native service file should imho
either make sure to have a name which matches the one of the SysV init
script, or provide a static symlink in the package (i.e. not one that is
generated via systemctl enable). For a package which uses a generator,
i.e. generate the .service files on the fly, the package should ship a
static symlink in the package /lib/systemd/system/foo.service -> /dev/null.

In all these cases, the simple check I suggested would be sufficient.

Felipe, do you have a case in mind this would not cover?
