I guess the package installer would have to start the service after
installation which would be a solution in that sense, it needs to
enable the service anyway.

Also I don't understand why /etc/init.d/libnss-ldap masks
/etc/systemd/system/libnss-ldap.service for the enable call.

It will see the init script and then call the sysv thing and will
never get to the actual service file I have created?

Thanks for your help.

You could make a path unit that watches for changes to the
configuration file and then runs the script.

Thanks. But I take it you mean to wait for changes to /etc/ldap.conf, however the changes need to be re-run not after changing ldap.conf, but after adding new system users to the system.

Any case I don't know if anyone is still going to be interested in fixing the issue of that package.

Whenever you offer assistance it is usually taken as a reason to criticize the help offered for not being entirely perfect. And you don't get cooperative criticism (from someone also interested in seeing the thing through) but rebutive criticism (from someone apparently invested in not seeing the thing through).

Although these were not original-maintainers but it still feels they treat it as a competition. And they come up with reasons as to why other patches in the past have been better than yours. Or why what you suggest is not up-to-par. When they already know how to bring it up-to-par. But instead of simply doing that or suggesting that as a way to get the thing accepted, they bring it up as a reason to reject the thing. The same energy expended to say what's wrong could have been expended as a way to make it right.

But apparently that would mean that you "win" and apparently that would imply that they "lose"? How offering assistence can be a form of competition is beyond me, but apparently that is the way it is. Because any statement of what could be improved is a statement of what can be improved is a statement of what could be wrong.

And any statement of what could be wrong could be a slap in the face of those who have created the thing, if put wrongly or worded differently. No one wants to be told that what they've created is not okay, but offering improvements can hardly be done without it. Any improvement is a statement of the inferiority of the previous thing, if put in the wrong light.

Anyway, too much information and maybe not relevant to the thing at hand. Just an observation as to how some things sometimes go. Apologies.
