[mythtv-users] Xenial, upstart/systemd and mythbackend

Since upgrading to Xenial and 0.28, every time something should
restart mythbackend, I get the following:

insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (3 4 5) of script `ntp'
overrides LSB defaults (2 3 4 5).
insserv: warning: current stop runlevel(s) (0 1 2 6) of script `ntp'
overrides LSB defaults (1).
initctl: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket
/com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused
insserv: warning: script 'mythtv-backend' missing LSB tags and overrides
insserv: Default-Start undefined, assuming empty start runlevel(s) for
script `mythtv-backend'
insserv: Default-Stop  undefined, assuming empty stop  runlevel(s) for
script `mythtv-backend'

and have to manually restart mythbackend with

sudo service mythtv-backend restart

I assume this means that the packagers are testing with upstart, but
that Xenial comes by default with systemd, which seems not to be fully
supported.

Are there any plans to change this?

Regards

Jeff
