Installing those files in /usr/lib/systemd/system is fine.
systemd itself will handle them just as well as when they are installed 
in /lib/systemd/system (see systemd-analyze unit-paths).
It's our own tooling (debhelper, i-s-h, lintian) which preferred a 
single path, i.e. /lib/systemd/system.

I wanted to get debhelper updated anyway in the bookworm release cycle 
to prefer /usr/lib/systemd/system over /lib/systemd/system, but 
obviously this should have happened in a more orderly fashion, i.e. 
lintian would have been updated first.

I'll check later today, if i-s-h (init-system-helpers) does properly 
handle this new path. If so, I'd say the bug should be reassigned to 
lintian and we should start transitioning the files to 
/usr/lib/systemd/system.
