Description Ales Kozumplik 2013-03-28 10:15:07 UTC
Hello,

Can you please add dnf-makecache.timer among the services enabled by default in Fedora?

the makecache service satisfies the Fedora criteria for enabling[1]:

"If a service does not require configuration to be functional and does not listen on a network socket, it may be enabled by default (but is not required to do so)."

Makecache does not listen on a socket and it is designed to work without manual configuration.

Hello,

it's not working:

[root@localhost ~]# rpm -q systemd

^ inactive/dead?

Comment 6 Ales Kozumplik 2013-04-17 12:59:00 UTC
this is what dnf.spec says:

..
%post
%systemd_post dnf-makecache.timer

%preun
%systemd_preun dnf-makecacache.timer

%postun
%systemd_postun_with_restart dnf-makecache.timer
..

The standard scriptlets do not _start_ units. They merely _enable_ them.
It does say "enabled".

"cacache" - typo?

Ah, true.

It's strange though because if I understand the concept or enabling vs starting correctly, this will result in the service actually running on the restart. so the user installs it, it doesn't run but then he reboots and it runs. confusing.

What a catch, thanks.
