Hello,
I'd like to create a Debian package for an application that uses systemd
timers instead of cron jobs. Installing the `.service` and `.timer`
units is easy, one just copied them into `/lib/systemd/system/`.
My open question now is: how does one enable/start the installed timer
unit "in the right way"?
Should I use a postinst maintscript to manually enable and start the
timer or are there other and better facilities that I can use?
Regards,
