In [0] it was reported that after installation of pcsc-lite in Fedora, no smart cards were functioning at the system. After rebooting Fedora everything was functioning as expected.
The issue is that the pcsc daemon uses a socket-activated unit which is installed by dnf, but not started (and hence the windows- reminding behavior). The text on our default services [1] mentions that a service is "enabled by default on package installation" though there is a distinction between 'enable' and 'start'. The reason behind that is probably summarized in [2]: > Why don't we start the service after installation? > Installations can be in changeroots, in an installer context, or > in other situations where you don't want the services started. which is understandable, but does not necessarily lead to good user experience in Fedora. Zbigniew made a good summary of what needs to be done for that to work [3]. What do you think overall, is that something that makes sense to address in general, or in socket activated services only, or not at all? regards, Nikos [0]. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1545027 [1]. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:DefaultServices [2]. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL:SysVInitScripts?rd=Packaging:S ysVInitScript#Why_don.27t_we [3]. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1545027#c29 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
