The generic httpd.service link serves +two purposes here: 1. is to allow users to still refer to "httpd" +service (i.e. the command "service httpd restart" will still work, and +likewise calling the sysvinit script directly will also still redirect +properly to systemctl) and 2. is to allow a smooth upgrade from mga1 +such that the "enabled" state of the httpd service is properly migrated too. + +><i> I hadn't thought of the possibility that systemd not being installed is the +</I>><i> problem, but I guess that's the only logical explanation (unless systemd somehow +</I>><i> swept that directory and deleted it for some reason).

That said, it would certainly work! + +Thinking about it, I reckon rpm-helper especially should be something +that is always installed first on a big upgrade. There could be multiple +files running e.g. %_post_service etc. in their post scripts but we +certainly want the latest rpm-helper for that. + +Perhaps something to check out. + +Col + + +-- + +Colin Guthrie +colin(at)mageia.org +<A HREF="http://colin.guthr.ie/">http://colin.guthr.ie/</A> + +Day Job: + Tribalogic Limited <A HREF="http://www.tribalogic.net/">http://www.tribalogic.net/</A> +Open Source: + Mageia Contributor <A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/">http://www.mageia.org/</A> + PulseAudio Hacker <A HREF="http://www.pulseaudio.org/">http://www.pulseaudio.org/</A> + Trac Hacker <A HREF="http://trac.edgewall.org/">http://trac.edgewall.org/</A> +</PRE> + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="014208.html">[Mageia-dev] minor systemd-related issues +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="014218.html">[Mageia-dev] minor systemd-related issues +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#14212">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#14212">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#14212">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#14212">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">More information about the Mageia-dev +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
