Just flashed a new RPi 2 B device with UbuntuMATE 15.10.1 and am realising that the /etc/rc.local file does not get fired after any reboot 
When executing the command
sudo systemctl status rc.local
the following output is being produced:
● rc-local.service - /etc/rc.local Compatibility
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service; static; vendor preset: enabled)

Warning: rc-local.service changed on disk. Run 'systemctl daemon-reload' to reload units.
The only content I have put in the /etc/rc.local file are the commands from the discussion from UbuntuMATE 15.10 reset RTC chip date & time during bootup.
Does anybody encounter the same issue here?
