DH_SYSTEMD_ENABLE(1) Debhelper DH_SYSTEMD_ENABLE(1)
dh_systemd_enable - enable/disable systemd unit files
dh_systemd_enable [debhelper options] [--no-enable] [--name=name]
[unit file ...]
dh_systemd_enable is a debhelper program that is responsible for
enabling and disabling systemd unit files.
In the simple case, it finds all unit files installed by a package
(e.g. bacula-fd.service) and enables them. It is not necessary that
the machine actually runs systemd during package installation time,
enabling happens on all machines in order to be able to switch from
sysvinit to systemd and back.
In the complex case, you can call dh_systemd_enable and
dh_systemd_start manually (by overwriting the debian/rules targets)
and specify flags per unit file. An example is colord, which ships
colord.service, a dbus-activated service without an [Install]
section. This service file cannot be enabled or disabled (a state
called "static" by systemd) because it has no [Install] section.
Therefore, running dh_systemd_enable does not make sense.
For only generating blocks for specific service files, you need to
pass them as arguments, e.g. dh_systemd_enable quota.service and
dh_systemd_enable --name=quotarpc quotarpc.service.
debian/package.service, debian/package@.service
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.service (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.service) in the package build
directory.
debian/package.tmpfile
If this exists, it is installed into
usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/package.conf in the package build directory.
(The tmpfiles.d mechanism is currently only used by systemd.)
debian/package.target, debian/package@.target
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.target (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.target) in the package build
directory.
debian/package.socket, debian/package@.socket
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.socket (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.socket) in the package build
directory.
debian/package.mount
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.mount in the package build directory.
debian/package.path, debian/package@.path
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.path (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.path) in the package build directory.
debian/package.timer, debian/package@.timer
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.timer (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.timer) in the package build
directory.
--no-enable
Disable the service(s) on purge, but do not enable them on
install.
Note that this option does not affect whether the services are
started. That is controlled by dh_systemd_start(1) (using e.g.
its --no-start option).
--name=name
Install the service file as name.service instead of the default
filename, which is the package.service. When this parameter is
used, dh_systemd_enable looks for and installs files named
debian/package.name.service instead of the usual
debian/package.service.
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called
between invocations of this command (with the same arguments).
Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be
added to maintainer scripts.
Note that dh_systemd_enable should be run before dh_installinit. The
default sequence in dh does the right thing, this note is only
relevant when you are calling dh_systemd_enable manually.
