So, systemd works as expected afaics. That the anacron service is stopped by pm-powersave via acpi-support is not something which can be dealt with in systemd. From what I understand you'll also get this behaviour of anacron being stopped by pm-powersave/acpi-support under sysvinit, you just never noticed it due to sysvinit not having such great debugging facilities like the journal :-) Questions remains, what to do about this? I'd say it's a bug in acpi-support if it calls pm-powersave true, even though the system is not on battery. I'm inclined to close or re-assing this bug. Andreas, do you want to take this to the acpi-support maintainers? Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
