I noticed this while looking over the debdiff.
mail-transport-agent.target is or rather was a Debian specific extension
which was carried over from the insserv defined LSB system facilities.
Since it was used inconsistently and only very few MTAs actually
supported, we decided to drop support for mail-transport-agent.target [1].

Also, mail-transport-agent.target was supposed to be a passive target,
i.e. the provider of the service would pull it in via
Wants=mail-transport-agent.target
Before=mail-transport-agent.target
in the [Unit] section. But as said, mail-transport-agent.target is no
longer supported.
So please drop the WantedBy=mail-transport-agent.target line as otherwise
we'll need a followup upload which drops that line and also cleans up
the wants symlink in /etc.

Regards,
Michael
