Possibly, but I don't seem to have any control over that.  As far as I
can tell it's never even trying to start the squid service.  And I can't
figure out how to convince it to do so.

I know for a fact that it's not the squid config because I can start the
service by hand.  Also, as I said in my initial message, the workaround
has been to add "/etc/init.d/squid start" to /etc/rc.local and that
works fine.  So it's not a configuration problem; it's a problem that
systemd isn't starting the service.

I can use the workaround, but seriously, that's just dumb.  systemd
should start the services I tell the system to start.
