Dear Maintainer,

your package currently ships an /etc/init.d script and relies on
systemd-sysv-generator(8) to wrap this into a systemd service.

Please ship a native systemd service file, as systemd-sysv-generator
will likely not stay forever.

I'll point out Fedora ships this file:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/OpenIPMI/blob/rawhide/f/ipmi.service
This is very minimal and might not be the best integration, but seems
like it has a high chance of working.

There are additional sandboxing features available, which you might want
to consider enabling too.

Thanks,
Chris
