    Description

      We should improve the configuration of the Debian packages now that we are supporting only Debian 10 and 11. The first step should be to raise compat to something like 12 and fix anything that breaks the builds. Moreover, a look at lintian's error/warnings would be good to improve the overall packaging following upstream's suggestions.

      Last but not the least, it would be great to start adding systemd units to Debian packages instead of init.d configs. This step is complex and involves some code (for example, we could create the equivalent of init.d.tmpl for systemd) but the Debian packages could be the first configured for it.
