> OK, I guess I will have a go at this myself this weekend.I converted the package to use dh_installinit and dh_installdeb. That's in 0.9.5 which I just uploaded. I wrote a service file based on the systemd documentation I could find, which calls the existing init script. (I think this is probably the best approach, but I'm not sure.) But it does not work. My autopkgtests fail. I'm running git-clean -xdff && dpkg-buildpackage -uc -b && autopkgtest ../sauce_0.9.5~~_all.deb . --- /usr/sbin/really autopkgtest-virt-qemu /volatile/ian/autopkgtest-virt-qemu/forky where that image came from really autopkgtest-build-qemu forky forky. It's evidently running my unit file, since that's the change to the .deb and without it everything works, presumably via systemd's init script compatibility report, whose planned removal is what this bug is about. I'm not sure how to debug this. I'm not a habitual user of qemu, so I' m not sure even how to log into the qemu VM, and if I did I wouldn't know how to debug a system service startup. My branch is at git clone git+ssh://login.chiark.greenend.org.uk/home/ian/things/Sauce/sauce -b systemd-draft My feeling is that converting this package to use the dh sequencer, or generally overhauling the rules file, isn't a particularly useful thing to be doing. But I could be wrong, especially if that's likely to be implicated in the problems I'm having with systemd. Ian. -- Ian Jackson <[email protected]> These opinions are my own. Pronouns: they/he.
