Description Arnaud Desgranges 2014-02-16 12:06:55 UTC

The default distccd.service(systemd) doesn't include /etc/conf.d/distccd VARIABLES.
By default distccd.service is like this :
[Unit]
Description=Distccd: A Distributed Compilation Server
After=network.target

[Service]
User=distcc
ExecStart=/usr/bin/distccd --verbose --no-detach --daemon --port 3632 -N 15 --allow $ALLOWED_SERVERS

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

it should be something like this :
[Unit]
Description=Distccd: A Distributed Compilation Server
After=network.target

[Service]
User=distcc
EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/distccd
ExecStart=/usr/bin/distccd --verbose --no-detach --daemon $DISTCCD_OPTS

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

To include config file /etc/conf.d/distccd ($DISTCCD_OPTS)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start distccd systemd style
2. modify /etc/conf.d/distccd $variable
3. changing $DISTCCD_OPTS has no effect
Actual Results:  
/usr/lib/systemd/system/distccd.service doesn't get variable from /etc/conf.d/distccd

Expected Results:  
/usr/lib/systemd/system/distccd.service should get variable from /etc/conf.d/distccd
