nut-client can not be installed with systemd:

Hello,

Could you please specify the version you are using and paste the output of journalctl -xn here?

Kubuntu 14.04 x86_64 and NUT 2.7.1 from repository.
systemd from ppa:pitti/systemd

> and paste the output of journalctl -xn
Looks like there is typical complain about not filled configs, however with upstart not filled configs doesn't lead to half-installed package ("not configured" state).

I confirm this on a clean utopic install (unconfigured nut, no UPSes available)

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package nut - 2.7.1-1ubuntu2

---------------
nut (2.7.1-1ubuntu2) utopic; urgency=medium

  * Disable systemd unit; it does not check nut.conf whether nut is
    configured, and thus fails to start (and the package install). The init.d
    script works well enough for the time being. (LP: #1313231)
