aur and systemd service files
 

Im not sure if this has been asked/answered yet as i couldnt find a
previous question.


When installing service files in aur packages, even if the service file
hasnt changed the user will be met with "Unit file foo changed, it is
recommended to run systemctl daemon-reload".


The question is would it be recommended to do this automatically in
post_upgrade()?

you could do this in post_upgrade, but i personally would leave the
option to the user if he/she restarts the service.

In Arch we never restart daemons automatically for the user after
package installation and that's the way the users expect it to be. Let's
keep it that way.
