Mistake, fixed. Ignore first file.

Yeah, this is still missing.

I'd much rather have a socket-activated method, but I guess we can easily provide both.

In the current version of the package there is tftpd.service file. Unfortunately it is missing [Install] section. Also relation between tftpd.service and tftpd.socket is unclear. It seems that currently both need be explicitly enabled to allow tftpd startup at system boot...
Comment by Thomas Bächler (brain0) - Tuesday, 30 October 2012, 19:36 GMT
Just enable the socket, that's it. I have some changes locally to make it clearer.
Comment by Denis Yantarev (denn) - Tuesday, 30 October 2012, 19:42 GMT
Why not to add install section and socket dependency to the service file? Something like this:

[Unit]
Description=hpa's original TFTP daemon
Requires=tftpd.socket

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Also=tftpd.socket
Comment by Thomas Bächler (brain0) - Tuesday, 30 October 2012, 19:45 GMT
I did that locally but didn't push it out yet. The WantedBy is incorrect by the way.
Comment by Denis Yantarev (denn) - Tuesday, 30 October 2012, 20:00 GMT
What's wrong with WantedBy? It is used this way in all Arch service files I've seen.
Comment by Thomas Bächler (brain0) - Tuesday, 30 October 2012, 20:21 GMT
You are not supposed to activate the .service, only the .socket. Please, read the manpage, they explain it much better than I can.

There is another issue with current tftpd.service. Previously it was possible to specify additional commandline args via TFTPD_ARGS variable in /etc/conf.d/tftpd (which I've used it to specify remap file). tftpd.service doesn't have this capability and the only solution is to clone it to /etc/systemd/system and add args there. Which is not a good thing I believe.

No, this is exactly the intention. You can use systemd-delta to keep track of drift between the units.
Comment by Thomas Bächler (brain0) - Saturday, 03 November 2012, 19:51 GMT
Copying the service file is the right thing to do.
