In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup. Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach. This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220 The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of: - Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount. - Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc. These will be handled separately by follow up patches. Tested: - With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly. - Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist. - Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.

<title>Parameter Formatting</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <command>call</command> and
|
|
<command>set-property</command> commands take a signature string
|
|
followed by a list of parameters formatted as string (for details
|
|
on D-Bus signature strings see the <ulink
|
|
url="http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#type-system">Type
|
|
system chapter of the D-Bus specification</ulink>). For simple
|
|
types each parameter following the signature should simply be the
|
|
parameter's value formatted as string. Positive boolean values may
|
|
be formatted as <literal>true</literal>, <literal>yes</literal>,
|
|
<literal>on</literal>, <literal>1</literal>; negative boolean
|
|
values may be specified as <literal>false</literal>,
|
|
<literal>no</literal>, <literal>off</literal>,
|
|
<literal>0</literal>. For arrays, a numeric argument for the
|
|
number of entries followed by the entries shall be specified. For
|
|
variants the signature of the contents shall be specified,
|
|
followed by the contents. For dictionaries and structs the
|
|
contents of them shall be directly specified.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For example,
|
|
<programlisting>s jawoll</programlisting> is the formatting

of a single string <literal>jawoll</literal>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
<programlisting>as 3 hello world foobar</programlisting>
|
|
is the formatting of a string array with three entries,
|
|
<literal>hello</literal>, <literal>world</literal> and
|
|
<literal>foobar</literal>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
<programlisting>a{sv} 3 One s Eins Two u 2 Yes b true</programlisting>
|
|
is the formatting of a dictionary
|
|
array that maps strings to variants, consisting of three
|
|
entries. The string <literal>One</literal> is assigned the
|
|
string <literal>Eins</literal>. The string
|
|
<literal>Two</literal> is assigned the 32bit unsigned
|
|
integer 2. The string <literal>Yes</literal> is assigned a
|
|
positive boolean.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that the <command>call</command>,
|
|
<command>get-property</command>, <command>introspect</command>
|
|
commands will also generate output in this format for the returned
|
|
data. Since this format is sometimes too terse to be easily
|
|
understood, the <command>call</command> and
|
|
<command>get-property</command> commands may generate a more
|
|
verbose, multi-line output when passed the
|
|
<option>--verbose</option> option.</para>

<para>The following two commands first write a property and then

the property is <literal>LogLevel</literal> on the

<literal>org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager</literal>
|

interface. The property contains a single string:</para>
