After updating to systemd v234.11, booting a machine that runs both kodi and mysqld results in kodi not connecting to the mysqld database but instead displaying a blank library. Corresponding entries in the kodi.log suggest that it is unable to connect to the network:
Kodi is started using the following systemd service which it has for years without issue on this hardware:
If I add a "ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/sleep 2s" to the above service, kodi works as expected, connecting without issue. Can something be done with kodi itself to be more tolerant of whatever is causing the delay? Any suggestions are welcomed as the ExecStartPre line seems hacky.
