Failed to enable unit: Unit file lorri.service does not exist.

Edit:

I had lorri 1.2.0. Switched to lorri 1.5.0 and apparently presents the same behavior.

I had lorri installed for a while (and rebooted a few times), but have always been unable to... enable it with systemctl:

systemctl --user enable lorri.service returned the Failed to enable unit: Unit file lorri.service does not exist. message.

Long story short, ~/.config/systemd/user/lorri.service linked file (/nix/store/mn2xw17nf6r7frhy595479rgwkpyr74m-unit-lorri.service/lorri.service in my case) did not contain:

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
  • I created a standalone ~/.config/systemd/user/lorri.service
  • with the content of /nix/store/mn2xw17nf6r7frhy595479rgwkpyr74m-unit-lorri.service/lorri.service
  • added the WantedBy=multi-user.target clause to it
  • saved

now I am able to enable/start lorri.

As I did not find any reference to this case in issues (or any search online, for what matters), I wonder if I am the only one experiencing this behavior and/or I am missing something 🤔
