From 8e07fc41f86d41e68c5663b2a3c620a0adedcc11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek Date: Sun, 31 Aug 2014 00:42:27 -0400 Subject: Quote unit names in suggested systemctl commandlines The fact that unit names have to be quoted can be a bit surprising. Show quotes in the hint commandline, but only after checking that this is necessary, since quotes are visually heavy and usually not needed. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82832 --- src/systemctl/systemctl.c | 14 ++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/systemctl') diff --git a/src/systemctl/systemctl.c b/src/systemctl/systemctl.c index 65348193b7..de43c879a7 100644 --- a/src/systemctl/systemctl.c +++ b/src/systemctl/systemctl.c @@ -2351,8 +2351,18 @@ static int check_wait_response(WaitData *d) { log_error("Job for %s canceled.", strna(d->name)); else if (streq(d->result, "dependency")) log_error("A dependency job for %s failed.
