Hello,
I confirm that using the systemd unitfile, instead of the init.d script,
breaks the postfix use case, documented at /etc/default/saslauthd:
# Example for chroot Postfix users: "-c -m
/var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd"
(hence breaks some bookworm->trixie upgrades.)
IIUC adapting PIDFile is too complex for systemd, so we can either drop
PIDFile, or explicitly specify it locally (which also seems to tame the
warning reported by Alexander):
$ systemctl edit saslauthd.service
[Service]
PIDFile=/var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/saslauthd.pid
I merged #1053472 which is about the same issue.
In any case I believe this would be better documented, typically right
after the above example in /etc/default/saslauthd.
I believe this warrants a SPU, what do you think would be a good
approach for stable?
Cheers!
Sylvain
(Also I have to add: more than a decade after, yet another hour lost to
systemd-migration-related issues, *sigh*)
