Comment 20 for bug 1580356

I am the one who added the systemd unit files to upstream OpenVPN. These files are now getting a few updates [1] and will ship as the recommended unit files in the coming OpenVPN 2.4 release.

The OpenVPN team would appreciate if Ubuntu was shipping the upstream version of these unit files. We try to make all systemd based distributions use the same ones, as that gives less maintenance burden on package maintainers as well as a consistent behaviour across all distributions. Which again helps the support guys on #openvpn @ FreeNode when something isn't working.

With that said, I am happy to see that our versions resolves this issue. If anyone is interested in helping out testing, fixing and improving these unit files further, please do not hesitate getting in touch with us on #openvpn-devel @ FreeNode.
