sysvinit is not compatible with systemd units. You will need to add an init script, see the simple example in the init-d-script(5) manual page, unless your daemon is more complicated. > > Letting dh_installinit put code into postinst etc has done the right > > thing for me in a package of my own > > But I'm having a hard time making some senses out of that short sentence. I think that is referring to the situation where you already have an init script and dh_installinit from debhelper takes care of running the init script from the postinst when you install the package. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
