Now the package has been orphaned, anyone interested can pick up.

I maintain random_machine_id-openrc where ideas can be taken from regarding executables in /usr/bin/, for example.

Regards!

I see you have made me a co-maintainer without asking. I do not want to maintain another package which I do not use (I use random_machine_id-openrc), so I remove my co-maintainership again.

Reporting issues does not imply that I step in to maintain.

Regards!

Please add random_machine_id.sh and random_machine_id.service to the source array! Currently, your PKGBUILD is broken.

Can you change the ../random_machine_id to ${srcdir}/random_machine_id please?

By default, we start in ${srcdir}, and if $SRCDEST is set then one directory up can be somewhere were we really do not want to be, it is not guaranteed to be the directory where the PKGBUILD and accompanying files reside!

And, can you maybe also add provides=("random_machine_id-systemd"), conflicts=("random_machine_id-systemd"), or similar?

You actually install an executable that can be called anytime also independently of the systemd file, + a systemd file. So it would be nice to have two different package information for those. (I am just creating a package random_machine_id-openrc for OpenRC based systems.)

Regards!
