There is still a glitch:
At 21:01, after systemd daemon reload, the new service has been loaded, BUT it als shows "disabled",
which means on the next reboot, the service will not be started. That's probably NOT what an ordinary user wants.
I got the same outcome here running "dnf update" on Fedora. So I had to manually run "systemctl enable jenkins".

Furthermore, I noticed, that the automatic migration from /etc/sysconfig/jenkins to systemd's override config
lost all comments from the old file. I happen to have several different variations of JENKINS_JAVA_OPTIONS
where some of them are meant for debugging and are commentet out normally. Those got lost in migration
and I had to add them manually after the update. Of course, there's nothing that can be done about those and
admittely this is probably a rare corner case.

Looking forward to the Jenkins systemd service on Debian.
