This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release. * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we could ship this. * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before we could ship with this patch. * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should probably question if it makes sense at all.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>systemd-notify</command> may be called by daemon
|
|
scripts to notify the init system about status changes. It can be
|
|
used to send arbitrary information, encoded in an
|
|
environment-block-like list of strings. Most importantly it can be
|
|
used for start-up completion notification.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This is mostly just a wrapper around
|
|
<function>sd_notify()</function> and makes this functionality
|
|
available to shell scripts. For details see

<para>The command line may carry a list of environment variables
|
|
to send as part of the status update.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that systemd will refuse reception of status updates

from this command unless <varname>NotifyAccess=all</varname> is

set for the service unit this command is called from.</para>
