[systemd-devel] [PATCH 2/2] systemd: Relax dependencies of services

[Martin Pitt]

Hello all,

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek [2015-03-03 19:08 +0100]:

The corresponding upstart jobs trigger on virtual file systems (/sys,
etc.) and rpcbind, and we've used them for years. Also, NFS does not
yet use socket activation, or talks to other services on sockets
(except for rpcbind), so we don't need sockets.target either.  The
other dependencies (some network.target, some nss-lookup.target, etc.)
are already specified explicitly. So I'm quite sure.

That said, there's of course always a nonzero chance that this breaks
in a case which I haven't tested. In particular, I didn't test
kerberos/gssd, I'd appreciate if someone who has a real-world setup
with that could give this a spin.

Thanks,

Martin
