I recommend to call dh_installinit with --no-start. This won't harm the phone or the boot, but will prevent this failure when you try to install the package on a machine without android. Note that on a desktop with upstart it seems to work:
Setting up powerd (0.16+15.
powerd start/running, process 1802
but it's not running, and dmesg shows:
[ 333.993882] init: powerd main process ended, respawning
[ 334.145907] init: powerd main process (1864) killed by ABRT signal
[ 334.145922] init: powerd respawning too fast, stopped
i. e. as upstart doesn't treat this as a failure (even though startup fails), the package install happens to work. But that's not true under systemd.
