Hello,

With systemd recently enabled, I a wondering how to resolve when a 
package supports both systemd and sysvinit, but does not provide service 
files for every initscript it provides.

I am looking into busybox. It only provides systemd service files for 
syslog, but provides initscripts for other services such as udhcpd. By 
enabling the systemd distro feature and removing the sysvinit feature, 
all initscipts are removed from the installation, and thus services 
without systemd service files become unsupported.

Is there any way to resolve this without creating a udhcpd service file? 
Should sysvinit also be a DISTRO_FEATURE while the transistion to 
systemd is in progress?

Thank you,
Jake

Yeah, I was overzealous when disabling sysvinit from the DISTRO_FEATURES

Not all packages provide native systemd unit/service files and getting a 
pure systemd-only build would require some extra work. It is expected to 
use some of the old initscripts with systemd as a fallback, hence both 
DISTRO_FEATURES are still needed.

Hi, All:

I want use systemd, add following into my own distro.conf
     DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " systemd"
     VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_init_manager = "systemd"
     DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL_CONSIDERED = "sysvinit"

but when do_rootfs for my own image, I got error:
     error: package update-rc.d is not installed
     error: package base-passwd is not installed
     error: package run-postinsts is not installed

Any idea? Thanks!

I have restored to use default sysvinit, but got the same error!

I have found it:

	ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND += "remove_packaging_data_files ; "

the 'remove_packaging_data_files' is the reason!

why? it is always there, and everything ok, but after recent update!

Hi!

Is there any way to use systemd for starting system services in yocto v1.3?

Use meta-systemd from meta-openembedded.
