This might be a bug in i-s-h, but filing against systemd-homed for now. systemd-homed.service: [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target Alias=dbus-org.freedesktop.home1.service Also=systemd-homed-activate.service systemd-userdbd.service systemd-homed-activate.service: [Install] WantedBy=systemd-homed.service Also=systemd-homed.service → we have a circular dependency here, maybe deb-systemd-helper get's confused by that
I just checked that we can mitigate this issue by removing this circular Also= dependency. It is indeed deb-systemd-helper getting confused by that and as a result not writing proper state files to /var/lib/systemd/deb-systemd-helper.
So the damage is already done during installation in postinst. Thus raising to RC to warn users from installing systemd-homed atm.I propose a patch like the attached one, i.e. dropping the Also= from systemd-homed-active.service. WDYT?
I've also cloned the issue for i-s-h, as we might want to fix that properly. My perl is a bit rusty, so would appreciate help with that.
@bluca: do you think the attached patch is suitable for upstream? I find this circular Also= dependency kinda odd, I have to admit. Regards, Michael
