Two more suggestions: a/ let krb5-kdc-ldap ship a service file (with the proper dependencies and orderings) which conflicts with the krb5-kdc service. This will remove krb5-kdc from the start sequence. b/ make krb5-kdc-ship a drop-in snippet as /lib/systemd/system/krb5-kcd.service.d/foo.conf which augments the krb5-kcd.service with the necessary dependencies/orderings. As far as insserv overrides go in systemd (#759001): Apparently there are only two packages using that mechanism: krb5-kdc-ldap and debian-edu-config (and the latter is very special in any case). So I'm not convinced spending time on teaching systemd about insserv overrides with the limited ressources we have, is a good idea when we can just as well write one (or two service files). Therefore I'm inclined to tag #759001 as wontfix as far as myself goes. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
