This is autodetected by RPM already and added as
libc.so.6()(64bit)
(which is provided by glibc)Recommended form is
%autosetup
there are no libraries here - no need to call ldconfig on install/uninstall
I assume this implies the tool is usable by normal users without escalated privileges? Then this is fine (even recommend to discuss this with upstream to fix it there too)
Yes, the tool is usable without any escalated privilege. I'll talk to upstream to see if it's fixable anyway, thank you for the pointer
Neal Gompa kinda said it all in the mailing list thread, there is little use for it. What's more, daemonize does not tie messags to journald, which means one has to pass a rather awkward
sh -c 'program 2>&1 | logger -t myunit'
to the daemonize command, and even then, that is merely logged, but not categorized under any particular unit.@jengelh on my machines I just have a couple processes that I start occasionally for which I don't find any particular value to be monitored by systemd. Also, I know it's a very weak argument but it's still valid: all the distros I used have this in their repos and I don't see why openSUSE shouldn't have it; also the effort to maintain it is really really tiny. I'm volunteering to maintain this, so unless there's strong opposition to having this I'd like to continue my effort. If it's considered in a bad way or whatever I can drop the request, no problem.
