Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 824205
Please drop StandardOutput=syslog and Requires=network.target from radvd.service
Last modified: 2012-06-01 13:15:32 EDT
Please drop StandardOutput=syslog from the radvd.service unit file, as this overrides the default the user might configure in /etc/systemd/system.conf. As that file defaults to a similar default anyway the setting is entirely redundant anyway. Also, please drop Requires=network.target (but keep After=network.target), as radvd works fine without network (it listens to netlink events), and the user should have the option to run radvd without upping all interfaces.
Thanks for notifying. I asked FPC to change guidelines (https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/177). radvd could not start without up and running interface formally. It required at least one configured interface. I will verify radvd copes with missing all interfaces and I will adjust the unit file.
radvd-1.8.5-3.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/radvd-1.8.5-3.fc17
Side note: by leaving in After=network.target you still get the desired effect that if the network is configured you will be started after it. But you no longer are the one who pulls it in.
Package radvd-1.8.5-3.fc17: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 17 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing radvd-1.8.5-3.fc17' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-8268/radvd-1.8.5-3.fc17 then log in and leave karma (feedback).
I think it assigned to me by mistake.
radvd-1.8.5-3.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
