Hi,

I think it would be better to use a static symlink instead of an alias
in the .service file

When using an alias it's possible when running systemd as pid1 to endup
in a situation where the .service file is disabled, but the LSB
initscript is still enabled.

With a symlink this will not happen as the link between the initscript
and the .service file will always be active.

Cheers,

Laurent Bigonville
