The "masking" that you remember, is relevant for D-Bus activated service files, which don't have an explicit socket unit (yet, will change with the switch to kdbus). As for .socket units: they should be treated like .service units and started and stopped at the same time. You just need to keep the ordering in mind. If a package contains foo.service and foo.socket unit, you need to make sure foo.socket is stopped before the foo.service (on remove/upgrade). I think that's all there is to it. I think it shouldn't be to hard to add. Cheers, Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
