It was only used for exactly one thing: to substitute in the text in
/var/log/README. But it's use there was completely wrong, because the text
talks about "missing" log files from syslog, so even if we configured systemd
to log to a different directory, the "missing" log files would still be
"missing" from the old location.
Not everybody has those dirs in the filesystem (and they don't need to).
When creating an installation package using $DESTDIR, it is easy enough to
remove or ignore those directories, but if installing into a real root, it
is ugly to create and remove them. Let's add an option so people can skip
it if they want.
Inspired by #12930.
This call can be useful even if a server object is declared.
(Originally this was not supported, because a server typically needs to
handle multiple connections, and thus a synchronous wait on one would
starve the others out. But in some cases it might make sense to have
varlink point-to-point connections — i.e. where the server only handles
a single connection ever — and there it makes sense to synchronously
wait on the one connection).
Before only one comparison was allowed. Let's make this more flexible:
ConditionKernelVersion = ">=4.0" "<=4.5"
Fixes#12881.
This also fixes expressions like "ConditionKernelVersion=>" which would
evaluate as true.
This partially reverts 25de7aa7b9. I don't think the
change was intended there.
The problem I'm trying to solve: for /dev/kvm we get first an ADD uevent, and
then CHANGE whenever something connects or disconnects to the character device.
The rules in 50-default-udev.rules set UID, GID, and MODE on ADD, but not on
CHANGE. When the change event happens, we would reset the ownership and
permissions.
This happens because node_permissions_apply() would (after 25de7aa7b9)
set uid=gid=0 if they weren't set by the rules.
So let's only pass uid/gid/mode to node_permissions_apply() if appropriately
configured. Also let node_permissions_apply() do the skip of uid/gid/mode if
not set, and rename "always_apply" to more closely reflect its meaning.
It is pretty hard to figure out what the problem actually is, esp. when the rule
is long.
