PSA: Installing crowdsec on ancient Debian 8 can trigger systemd segfault

Just for some people to be aware of the issue on Debina 8 - if you install crowdsec then it can trigger systemd to get segmentation fault. This means systemd is totally dead and only system reboot can fix it ( systemctl --force --force reboot but it will trigger reboot IMMEDIATELY) crowdsec version 1.6.9 on amd64 
Run 'sudo systemctl reload crowdsec' for the new configuration to be effective.
