Gotta love systemd :(
I abandoned the packaged systemd service definitions and approach for a
more "sane" approach of starting keactrl and letting it manage the
various parts of kea, rather than having one service for each component.
I also install kea directly (to /opt, to keep things cleaner) as
Debian/Ubuntu is only on isc-kea-1.1.0-1
