Details

Description:
All the .install script does is enable the user service. This creates an untracked file "/etc/systemd/user/default.target.wants/xdg-user-dirs-update.service".

Why not just package a symlink that enables the service and get rid of the .install script?

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.
xdg-user-dirs 0.17-1

Steps to reproduce:
pacman -Qo /etc/systemd/user/default.target.wants/xdg-user-dirs-update.service
   xdg-user-dirs.patch (1.6 KiB)
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  untracked files in /etc are not a bad thing, and in this case they're a feature that prevents manually-disabled sockets from being surprisingly re-enabled on upgrades and breaking pacman -Qkk in the meantime.
