</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> But now, with the actual bug report, I see it was affecting the harddrake

</I>
At least I try to be wrong in interesting ways :D

&gt;<i> So it's in the right NEWS file but the description is wrong, it should
</I>&gt;<i> speak about service_harddrake then since drakxservice hasn't
</I>&gt;<i> the same timeout as harddrake and it's the later that has the issue
</I>&gt;<i> not the former.
</I>
Yup, that makes more sense. I guess I was just using drakxservices as a
catchall term... my bad.

&gt;<i> In that case, the $::isStandalone won't be enought as it will be set
</I>&gt;<i> for both harddrake service &amp; drakxservices.
</I>&gt;<i> We could set another global variable in harddrake ($::booting ?)
</I>&gt;<i> and test for it in services.pm.
</I>&gt;<i> WDYT?
</I>
Possibly, but I'm not sure it actually matters right now. In the GUI
version I think we actually do the start/stop in a weird way anyway via
/sbin/service and backtick execution[1] rather than this helper
function. That should really be fixed, but when I looked at this and
tried to change it, it had a bigger impact on how the GUI works (as it
grabs the output and displays it and systemct restart doesn't have much
in the way of interesting output to show here). I was not in the mood to
rework GUIs when doing the systemd stuff, so hopefully this will annoy
someone enough in the future and get fixed then. For now I don't see
this as critical.
