Proposed unit file

We'd appreciate having a systemd unit file installed along with dhcpcd. It would be something like:

	inherit systemd

	src_install() {
		#...
		systemd_dounit "${FILESDIR}"/dhcpcd.service || die
	}

I can encorporate it this way, but you might prefer to file a request
upstream for systemd support [1] and reference it here so that we can
track whether or not upstream adds this.

Let me know if you want to do this and if you still want me to revbump
the ebuild and encorporate the change you suggest.

Also, can you please attach the ebuild patch to this bug instead of
putting it inline in the comments?

I pinged Roy for that but I don't think it's worth a release. I'll let you know when and how he responds.

Can you please put a link to the upstream bug in this bug?

Thanks,

William

Patch to add the systemd unit file install

I asked Roy on IRC and he's not interested in keeping that file upstream. Thus, attaching the patch to ebuild.

Fixed patch

Oops, it didn't catch the move.

I could not use your patch directly, but the changes are in 5.2.12-r1.
