Bug Description

Now that accountsservice is configured with --enable-systemd, a /lib/systemd/system/accounts-daemon.service gets installed into debian/tmp, but it is not packaged anywhere. The absence of the file prevents gdm from starting successfully:

This may be fixed by adding

lib/systemd/system/accounts-daemon.service

(or one of its parents) to debian/accountsservice.install.

Thanks Anders - I've instead copied the packaging for this stuff from Debian, so that we can further reduce the delta. It doesn't seem to cause any problems on my Upstart system, and I've checked that the file is installed. I'm not running systemd so I didn't check if it works there; please reopen if it doesn't.
