[sane-devel] What compiler switch for systemd support?

[ToddAndMargo]

Dear List,

Anyone know what the compiler switch is to compile
in explicit systemd support?

Many thanks,

$ ./configure --help | grep systemd
--with-systemd enable systemd support [default=yes]

So, --with-systemd would be the configure time option to use.
Of course, you will need the systemd development packages installed
(probably libsystemd-dev or similar).

With the flag, configure will abort with an error if the requirements to
build in systemd support are not satisfied.

Hope this helps,

Followup:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and Friends (CentOS, Scientific
Linux, etc.) does not compile in the daemon support. And
Fedora 27 separates the daemon from the backup end. I have
requested the daemon for RHEL:

RFE: please include sane-backends-daemon
