Source: apache2
Severity: serious
Justification: blocks other packages from migrating
Affects: systemd

Dear Maintainer(s),

The htcacheclean autopkgtest:

https://sources.debian.org/src/apache2/2.4.66-6/debian/tests/htcacheclean

has an hardcoded manual check of /etc/rc to see if a service is enabled:

if ls /etc/rc[2345].d/S*apache-htcacheclean > /dev/null 2>&1

The deprecated sysv interfaces have been removed in systemd v260, so
this now fails. Please just use 'systemctl' in the tests, OR restrict
this test/check to sysvinit systems, whichever is your preference.

This failure stops systemd from migrating to testing, hence the severity.

https://ci.debian.net/packages/a/apache2/testing/amd64/68982980/
