[opensuse-packaging] reminder for systemd services: do not use syslog.target anymore
Hi all,
just a reminder because I had to fix one package (sendmail) which had a
hard dependency on syslog.target (Requires), in addition to
After=syslog.target.
With recent (>202) systemd release, syslog.target is no longer provided:
services are ensured they are started after logging socket is setup, so
journal will capture all syslog messages and will store them and forward
them to syslog implementation (if running).
With openSUSE 12.3, having syslog.target was already not doing anything
(but the target was still there) but it was removed in Factory.
I think very few packages have systemd service file with
"Requires=syslog.target", which does break in Factory (sendmail was an
example). For packages with only "After=syslog.target", there won't be
any issue (since it is just an ordering information).
In any case, if you are still seeing services with syslog.target as
Requires or After, please clean them.
Thanks !

I already fixed those I saw a while ago, but there might be more (IIRC, also package "syslogd" needs fixing, I did not changed it, but only syslog-ng and rsyslog) . How to properly hook up syslog implementations is documented here --> http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/syslog/ but for some reason people is not RTFM :-| -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

The ones "After"s "Before"s and any ordering only option, could be ignored, however those using Requires have to be fixed. Those "Requires" , except the ones on mount points have to be changed to "Wants" instead. "Wants= [...] This is the recommended way to hook start-up of one unit to the start-up of another unit" , but apparently, reading the documentation is not a common exercise these days. :-P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
