Stuff that does not survive akshara update

I've found a few things that do not seem to survive akshara update (and there may be others): 1. user defined systemd services: I got a tiny service that I uploaded to the usual spot (/etc/systemd/system) that always gets deleted(!) following akshara update 2. the ssh setting (see screenshot below) always gets set to off following akshara update Are these bugs, or is this expected behavior? How can I work around these please? See also this: https://www.reddit.com/r/BlendOS/comments/1n8ioa8/stuff_that_does_not_survive_akshara_update/

Thanks all for the input! Adding gnome-remote-desktop to the services section of system.yaml fixes this.

for SSH you need to use the services block to enable the sshd system service

Thanks. How about #1 though? Is that a bug? Any plans on fixing that?

Here's another couple of settings that doesn't survive akshara update: "Desktop Sharing" and "Remote Login." What do I do about these? What services should I add to the service block?

You should be able to look these up Remote login should be SSH

yeah oh I see desktop sharing and remote login are the same service I think look through systemctl list-units for anything RDP-related
#1 mixed number hater
yeah, that's a bug one of the biggest right now i think the issue is we 1) rebuild the system in a vacuum, but 2) have to allow for akshara updating stuff in /etc, and 3) allow you to modify /etc outside of akshara i think the solution is to mount /etc inside the chroot/just copy everything over, would have to test though currently it's using a really horrible hack instead

I managed to work around this bug by adding some commands in system.yaml, so all's well. Thanks for the assistance.
