[SOLVED] 'at' package upgrade does not install all the pieces

I just ran a system update this morning, and

the 'at' package was upgraded from at-3.1.16-1 to at-3.1.20-1.

The new package did not update all of the pieces needed for systemd to deploy the daemon.

I use at and batch extensively to do backups and system maintenance, mailing the log files.

I reinstalled at-3.1.16-1 from the pkg cache and put it on the config's ignorepkg list for the time being.

Please test and fix.

uname -a
Linux arch8 4.7.2-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Aug 20 23:02:56 CEST 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux

You don't even tell us what the problem is. This thread is pretty useless so far.

He kinda did, if quite vaguely. 3.1.16-1 contained 'usr/lib/systemd/system/atd.service', 3.1.20-1 does not.

I don't know how to say it - the new package doesn't install all the pieces needed for systemd to manage it.

WTF else can I say about it? The new one doesn't work!

You could say that the unit is missing, like alphaniner pointed out. Just saying "it doesn't work!" is useless.

Anyway, it appears that maintainer removed it on purpose. Posting here will do nothing, either file a feature request in the bug tracker or simply make your own unit.
