From a1484a216e79da1fa7e2323095fb1b7203fb7a17 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Djalal Harouni Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2014 01:07:52 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] systemctl: allow to change the default target without the --force switch Currently "systemctl set-default" will fail to change the default target due to the 'default.target' being a symlink which is always the case. To work around this, the user must specify the "--force" switch to be able to overwrite the existing symlink. This is clearly a regression that was introduced by commit 718db96199e since it worked before without the "--force" switch and the man pages do not mention that you need to specify it. It is expected that this is a symlink. So just explicity set the force flag to make it work again. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76623 Reported-by: --- src/systemctl/systemctl.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git src/systemctl/systemctl.c src/systemctl/systemctl.c index ee0938f..1b381f7 100644 --- src/systemctl/systemctl.c +++ src/systemctl/systemctl.c @@ -1968,7 +1968,7 @@ static int set_default(sd_bus *bus, char **args) { return log_oom(); if (!bus || avoid_bus()) { - r = unit_file_set_default(arg_scope, arg_root, unit, arg_force, &changes, &n_changes); + r = unit_file_set_default(arg_scope, arg_root, unit, true, &changes, &n_changes); if (r < 0) { log_error("Failed to set default target: %s", strerror(-r)); return r; @@ -1990,7 +1990,7 @@ static int set_default(sd_bus *bus, char **args) { "SetDefaultTarget", &error, &reply, - "sb", unit, arg_force); + "sb", unit, true); if (r < 0) { log_error("Failed to set default target: %s", bus_error_message(&error, -r)); return r; -- 1.7.9.2
