Hello, I am currently playing around with shipping a native systemd service file for exim. Both openSUSE and archlinux provide nice starting points. However, both[2] use Type=simple and reading the docs [1] I cannot understand why. - The error detection Type=exec offers and Type=simple lacks seems to be quite a benefit. What am I missing, is this just a historical thing, with Type=exec having been introduced later?
cu Andreas [1] https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.service.html [2] archlinux also has an example for socket activation. -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin. His other friends are so grateful to you.' `I sew his ears on from time to time, sure' -- ## subscription configuration (requires account): ## https://lists.exim.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/exim-users.lists.exim.org/ ## unsubscribe (doesn't require an account): ## exim-users-unsubscr...@lists.exim.org ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
