Description Alessandro Barbieri 2017-05-31 18:09:09 UTC

I just found that Arch's etckeeper have a systemd timer, can be backported in gentoo too?

See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Etckeeper

Not using systemd, CC'ing systemd project.

Is there something wrong with the timer that etckeeper-1.18.6 already appears to install?  Granted, it runs a bash script in /etc but that is the same as what is being done with the cron script.

Comment 3 Alessandro Barbieri 2017-08-03 22:57:39 UTC

Well I'm using what is in stable so version 1.18.1
