 Don't install dependency links at install time for the binfmt services, use

+[Install] blocks so that they get created when the service is enabled like a
+traditional service.
 
-Upstream-Status: Inappropriate(Makefile.am) / Submitted(units/)
+The [Install] blocks were rejected upstream as they don't have a way to "enable"
+it on install without static symlinks which can't be disabled, only masked.  We
+however can do that in a postinst.

+Upstream-Status: Denied
