When systemd-hostnamed is used it is strongly recommended to
install nss-myhostname to ensure that in a world of
- dynamically changing hostnames the hostname stays resolveable
+ dynamically changing hostnames the hostname stays resolvable
under all circumstances. In fact, systemd-hostnamed will warn
- if nss-myhostname is not installed. Packagers are encouraged to
- add a dependency on nss-myhostname to the package that
- includes systemd-hostnamed.
+ if nss-myhostname is not installed.
+
+ Note that D-Bus can link against libsystemd-login.so, which
+ results in a cyclic build dependency. To accommodate for this
+ please build D-Bus without systemd first, then build systemd,
+ then rebuild D-Bus with systemd support.
+
+ To build HTML documentation for python-systemd using sphinx,
+ please first install systemd (using 'make install'), and then
+ invoke sphinx-build with 'make sphinx-<target>', with <target>
+ being 'html' or 'latexpdf'. If using DESTDIR for installation,
+ pass the same DESTDIR to 'make sphinx-html' invocation.
WARNINGS:
systemd will warn you during boot if /etc/mtab is not a

+ To run systemd under valgrind, compile with VALGRIND defined
+ (e.g. ./configure CPPFLAGS='... -DVALGRIND=1'). Otherwise,
+ false positives will be triggered by code which violates
+ some rules but is actually safe.
