Heya, Here's a little headsup to all packagers, regarding packaging of systemd v20 (which isn't released yet):
With v20 we introduced /etc/machine-id, which needs special attention when packaging. First, here's a bit of background regarding this new feature: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2011-March/014187.html All that you need to add to the installation or upgrade scriptlets of your systemd package is invoke /bin/systemd-machine-id-setup. That will generate the file as necessary. And you probably should include an *empty* /etc/machine-id file in your package so that if needed systemd can bind mount the id into that. And then, optionally, symlink /var/lib/dbus/machine-id → /etc/machine-id. But you probably want to do that in the dbus package, not systemd. But this is optional, but recommended to make clear that this is actually the same thing when the user browses through his directories. Have fun, Lennart -- Lennart Poettering - Red Hat, Inc. _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
