DH_INSTALLSYSTEMDUSER(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLSYSTEMDUSER(1)
dh_installsystemduser - install systemd unit files
dh_installsystemduser [debhelper options] [--no-enable]
[--name=name] [unit file ...]
dh_installsystemduser finds the systemd user instance service
files installed by a package and generates preinst, postinst, and
prerm code blocks for enabling, disabling, starting, stopping, and
restarting the corresponding systemd user instance services, when
the package is installed, updated, or removed. These snippets are
added to the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb(1).
deb-systemd-helper(1) is used to enable and disable the systemd
units, thus it is not necessary that the machine actually runs
systemd during package installation time, enabling happens on all
machines.
dh_installsystemduser operates on all user instance unit files
installed by a package. For only generating blocks for specific
unit files, pass them as arguments. Specific unit files can be
excluded from processing using the -X common debhelper(1) option.
debian/package.user.path, debian/package@.user.path,
debian/package.user.service, debian/package@.user.service,
debian/package.user.socket, debian/package@.user.socket,
debian/package.user.target, debian/package@.user.target,
debian/package.user.timer, debian/package@.user.timer
If any of those files exists, they are installed into
usr/lib/systemd/user/ in the package build directory removing
the .user file name part.
--name=name
Install the service file as name.service instead of the
default filename package.service. When this parameter is used,
dh_installsystemd looks for and installs files named
debian/package.name.user.service instead of the usual
debian/package.user.service. Moreover, maintainer scripts are
only generated for units that match the given name.
--no-enable
Disable the service(s) on purge, but do not enable them on
install.
This command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called
between invocations of this command (with the same arguments).
Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be
added to maintainer scripts.
