That path is used to detect if it has run before and skip re-execution as it isn't needed anymore then. A path change might be wanted, but would either need all sorts of maintscript magic to carry from old to new location if that has happened on a given system.
The option to use: CacheDirectory=pollinate is very tempting. Because if the path is there already this does nothing => no re-execution even on reboots. But if running in an environment that has cleaned /var/cache then this will ensure it is "fine again". I think we can at this time also remove the mkdir from the postinst. I'll prep that tomorrow and experiment with it .... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848923 Title: pollinate.service fails to start: ERROR: should execute as the [pollinate] user -- missing CacheDirectory= To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pollinate/+bug/1848923/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
