Is it possible to mix systemd and non-systemd in a rules file?

[Alex Nelson]

Hmm, if I could have 2 rules files, I would have one saying "--with
systemd" and the other would not say "--with systemd".
I think you are asking so what?

Here is my rules file:



















*#!/usr/bin/make -f# -*- makefile -*-# Uncomment this to turn on verbose
mode.export DH_VERBOSE=1%:        dh $@ --with python3,systemd
--buildsystem=pybuild# Until debhelper compat 11, you need to explicitly
indicate there are no# SysV .init files.  We are using compat 9 for
now.override_dh_installinit:        dh_installinit -n
--name=package_twooverride_dh_systemd_enable:        dh_systemd_enable
--name=package_twooverride_dh_systemd_start:        dh_systemd_start
--restart-after-upgrade package_two*


setup.py finds the two packages (package_one and package_two).
After building, as expected, I get 2 debian packages.
I did not expect to see any references to systemd in package_one.
Before I starting hacking around, the rules line looked like this:


*dh $@ --with python3 --buildsystem=pybuild*

and generated no references to anything systemd in debian package_one.

After adding "systemd" to the Makefile line, my package one debian package
generates all kinds of unwanted systemd references.
For example, the debian package for my *package_one *has systemd references
to *package_two*.

Here is the postint  that now lives in debian package_one:




























*#!/bin/shset -e# Automatically added by dh_systemd_enable# This will only
remove masks created by d-s-h on package removal.deb-systemd-helper unmask
package_two.service >/dev/null || true# was-enabled defaults to true, so
new installations run enable.if deb-systemd-helper --quiet was-enabled
editshare-reindexer.service; then # Enables the unit on first installation,
creates new # symlinks on upgrades if the unit file has changed.
deb-systemd-helper enable package_two.service >/dev/null || trueelse #
Update the statefile to add new symlinks (if any), which need to be #
cleaned up on purge. Also remove old symlinks. deb-systemd-helper
update-state editshare-reindexer.service >/dev/null || truefi# End
automatically added section# Automatically added by dh_systemd_startif [ -d
/run/systemd/system ]; then systemctl --system daemon-reload >/dev/null ||
true if [ -n "$2" ]; then _dh_action=try-restart else _dh_action=start fi
deb-systemd-invoke $_dh_action package_two.service >/dev/null || truefi#
End automatically added section*
