And another question: I have to add two environment variables before starting my service I want to install with the Debian package. Is there a way to achieve that? The scripts I see at the moment are only to be injected on installation/uninstallation.

Meanwhile I was able to achieve what I wanted. Maybe this should also go to the docs, but I am not sure if it is too specific. I used a PostInstallScript:

   <PostInstallScript>
      <![CDATA[
rm -f /usr/local/bin/my-app
mv /usr/share/my-app/my-app.sh /usr/local/bin/my-app
chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/my-app
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable --now my-app.service
systemctl my-app
       ]]>
    </PostInstallScript>
