Current Behavior

The headscale.service gets disabled when upgrading the deb package.

Expected Behavior

The headscale.service should stay enabled after upgrading via the deb package. The debian package should handle debian maintainer scripts well.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. sudo dpkg -i headscale_0.23.0_linux_amd64.deb
  2. sudo systemctl enable headscale
  3. sudo systemctl is-enabled headscale
    enabled
  4. sudo dpkg -i headscale_0.24.0-beta.2_linux_amd64.deb
  5. sudo systemctl is-enabled headscale
    disabled

Shell output:

$ sudo dpkg -i headscale_0.24.0-beta.2_linux_amd64.deb

 headscale package has been successfully installed.

 Please follow the next steps to start the software:

    sudo systemctl enable headscale
    sudo systemctl start headscale

 Configuration settings can be adjusted here:
    /etc/headscale/config.yaml

----------------------------------------------------------------------
$ sudo systemctl is-enabled headscale
disabled

Environment

- OS: Debian 12
- Headscale version: 0.24.0-beta.2
- Tailscale version: -

Runtime environment

  • Headscale is behind a (reverse) proxy
  • Headscale runs in a container

Anything else?

Workaround: Don't forget to enable headscale after update: sudo systemctl enable headscale
