Hi everybody,
To provide a bit of context: Syncthing ships unit files for both system services and user services, where the system service can be instantiated with the $USER the service should run as. The user service obviously doesn't need this argument, but will only run when the user is logged in.
In the syncthing.spec file, I have the following scriptlets for correctly handling the syncthing service:
%post %systemd_post 'syncthing@*.service' %systemd_user_post syncthing.service
%preun %systemd_preun 'syncthing@*.service' %systemd_user_preun syncthing.service
%postun %systemd_postun_with_restart 'syncthing@*.service' %systemd_user_postun_with_restart syncthing.service
The variants for restarting all instances of the system service work up to fedora 30, and successfully restart the syncthing service when the packages is upgraded (as far as I can tell).
I now got a but report that this scriptlet no longer works on fedora
= 31, and it throws this error:
"Invalid unit name "syncthing@*.service" was escaped as "syncthing@\x2a.service" (maybe you should use systemd-escape?)"
See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1756395
It looks like systemd changed its behavior wrt. using wildcards for instances of services.
Does somebody know how to fix this? Doing some Google-fu didn't help me.
Thanks, Fabio
