systemd on debian8, a possible solution

[ng0]

Hi,

could we point out the solution redhat had in this case?

address@hidden:~# systemctl enable guix-daemon
Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory

The output above was when you follow our documentation.
Now redhat has this workaround
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=955379#c30 in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=955379

which seems to work for some versions of systemd (including the one
which is currently used in Debian 8 stable):

address@hidden:~# systemctl enable
/root/.guix-profile/lib/systemd/system/guix-daemon.service
Created symlink from
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/guix-daemon.service to
/root/.guix-profile/lib/systemd/system/guix-daemon.service.
address@hidden:~# systemctl status guix-daemon

After reboot the service was still there.
As the files in ~root/guix-profile/ are symlinks, I expect that this is
permanent and will still work when the systemd file changes.
