Thanks for the fast fix, is there already a package built from the patch
somewhere that I could test?

Also you might want to amend the title of the bug, as enabling the
service is in fact performed properly, systemctl just throws an error in
the end when it should simply terminate successfully instead.

Title:
  systemctl enable fails to enable a SysV service

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in systemd source package in Vivid:

Bug description:
  SRU TEST CASE:
  --------------
  Trying to enable a SysV init service which does not have a corresponding systemd unit results in an error:

  # systemctl enable pulseaudio
  Synchronizing state for pulseaudio.service with sysvinit using update-rc.d...
  Executing /usr/sbin/update-rc.d pulseaudio defaults
  Executing /usr/sbin/update-rc.d pulseaudio enable
  Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory

  /etc/init.d/pulseaudio actually does get enabled (check
  /etc/rc*/*pulse*), but the command fails with code 1 and you get that
  error message. With the fix the command succeeds.

  SRU Regression potential
  ------------------------
  Low, the modes for "sysv script + systemd unit" as well as "systemd unit only" already have automatic tests, and now this scenario ("sysv script only") has a test too. In the worst case this has the potential of completely breaking systemctl enable/disable, which can be worked around with changing symlinks manually, and isn't breaking the boot.
