Hi *, is there some howto for the ca-certificates package - not for the general purpose, which is clear, but for the handling. It contains two systemd services, but no timer unit. How should the service units be treated? TIA. Bye. Michael.

No handling is needed.

I am not sure I understand the question (probably, language problem). Normally service is triggered by path unit when the content of certificate source directories is changed. Path unit should be enabled by default. You can also manually run `update-ca-certificates` if in doubt, it will never hurt.

In this case it was more a knowledge problem 8-<

Ok, this was the missing information. I didn't know, that the path unit is the "master" of them all :) But of course I should have known: systemctl status ca-certificates.service ... TriggeredBy: ● ca-certificates.path ...

Ok, thx for the hints.
