This is now the preferred location in Debian. See:
https://lintian.debian.org/tags/systemd-service-in-odd-locationhttps://bugs.debian.org/992465https://bugs.debian.org/987989d70caa69c6https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2021/08/msg00275.html
Tests:
- Lintian no longer shows errors:
E: freedombox: systemd-service-in-odd-location lib/.../calibre-server-freedombox.service
- Comparing the old .deb and newly generated .deb with these changes. All the
systemd files show that they are moved from /lib to /usr/lib/systemd.
- After upgrading the deb from older version to a version these changes,
services installed by the package are available (tested after restart with
wordpress and claibre). Services tweaked by the package have the changed
configuration reflected as shown by systemctl show
{service-name}.service (tested after restart with quassel).

- When there are multiple binary packages, a common practice is to install into
debian/tmp using the Makefile and then use dh_install and .install files. This
splits the contents installed into debian/tmp to various package directories
debian/{package}.
- Install documentation in to /usr/share/freedombox instead of
/usr/share/doc/freedombox. Then create a link to /usr/share/doc/freedombox/.
This approach is recommended Debian Policy Manual in section 12.3[1] because
it should safe for administrator to delete files in /usr/share/doc safely
without breaking the application functionality. The doc-base must refer to the
documentation in /usr/share/doc as per doc-base documentation.
