The proposed mechanism to enable systemd unit in mintainer script is the use of dh_systemd. It is possible to enable both, .service *and* socket unit. Atm, acpid explicitly does *not* enable the .service unit but only the .socket unit: override_dh_systemd_enable: dh_systemd_enable --no-enable debian/acpid.service dh_systemd_enable debian/acpid.socket > And, in the end *why* was it disabled at all? That's a decision that's up to the maintainer. Under systemd, there are multiple triggers, how a service can be started a/ during boot by being pulled in via one of the standard targets like multi-user.target b/ via socket activation, by a .socket unit c/ via hardware events (triggered via udev rules, by tagging a device and setting ENV{SYSTEMD_WANTS}+="foo.service") d/ via D-Bus service activation, by a dbus system service file. e/ timer events, by a .timer unit The maintainer can decide, which one of those is the most suitable for a given service. It can also be a combination of multiple triggers. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
