In Debian we have debhelper addons which generate maintainer scripts code automatically to run systemd-tmpfiles /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/foo.conf upon installation, so this isn't really a problem anymore for us. Regarding discoverability, my suggestion in that thread was to add a new field which allows to reference the associated tmpfiles snippet, similar as we do for Documentation. Having such a reference on the tmpfile snippet(s) in the .service file would also make it possible to run them automatically whenever the service is started. This could be useful for distros which haven't automated the invocation of systemd-tmpfiles Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
