Hi all, I'd like to file bugs (severity: important) on packages that ship an init script that installs into runlevel S, but do not provide a systemd service for it. I plan to use the init-rcs-service [usertag] to record all filed bugs.
=== BEGIN TEMPLATE === Hi, Your package has an initscript that is enabled in runlevel S, but it does not provide a corresponding systemd service unit. Systemd generates units for all sysv init scripts that do not have a corresponding systemd unit. By default, it sets DefaultDependencies=yes, which means they get ordered after early boot. The problem is that to preserve the runlevel S semantics, systemd in debian is currently[1] ordering all S services Before=sysinit.target. This target is particularly early in the boot sequence, which means that it is most of the time too strict. In turn, this means it is fairly easy to end up with dependency cycles. For an example, see bug [763315]. Do note that the cycle still exists with sysvinit, it is just that systemd complains more loudly. The solution is straightforward: create a systemd unit for the given service with the appropriate dependencies, which most of the time will be less strict than Before=sysinit.target. In other cases, the script is simply not applicable in systemd (eg, if the units are named differently), in which case the package should ship a symlink to /dev/null as /lib/systemd/system/<initscript>.service. If you have any other doubts, feel free to ask in pkg-systemd-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org [1] http://sources.debian.net/src/systemd/222-2/debian/patches/Add-support-for-rcS.d-init-scripts-to-the-sysv-gener.patch/ [763315] https://bugs.debian.org/763315 === END TEMPLATE === I have used the new lintian systemd-no-service-for-init-rcS-script [tag] to compile a list of packages that are affected. Some maintainers are already aware of the problem. If you are working on this and prefer not to have a bug filed, or there is already one filed, please let me know. AFAIK setserial is the only one that has a bug already filed [786976].
