Missing grub-btrfsd daemon

[Guthauser]

I've got an running version of grub-btrfs and it works so far. Now i wanted to Automatically update grub upon snapshot creation or deletion. If I want to do so with

sudo systemctl start grub-btrfsd

I get following output:

Failed to start grub-btrfsd.service: Unit grub-btrfsd.service not found.

Did I miss a something to install?

Probably yes, can you give some more info about how you installed grub-btrfs and what distro you are using? Maybe also the content of /usr/lib/systemd/system?

[Guthauser]

Im using ParrotOS 6.0 and installed grub-btrfs via command

sudo apt install grub-btrfs

Didn't do anything other than that configuration/installation wise. (As far as I remember)

Also I can't recover snapshots listed in grub. I'll open another issue for that, but thought it's worth mentioning here because its maybe related?

[Schievel1]

It seems like parrot OS is having an older version of grub-btrfs in their repository. This looks like 4.11, although I am not sure. So maybe refer to the README of this version on how to activate the service (https://github.com/Antynea/grub-btrfs/tree/79ae25ea5d35a9252ab399aee569d70c3a9f1ee2) or upgrade.
