["Dr. Jens Rosenboom" <j.rosenboom@xxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

The current definition in `/lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service` uses
`After=network.target`, which is pretty useless, as `network.target`
according to
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/NetworkTarget/ only has
relevance during shutdown, which never happens for rc.local.

The result is that tasks in rc.local may get started before the network
is properly setup, which may cause them to fail, as this is a
significant change from the old SysV init behaviour.

The solution would be to change the dependency to

Wants=network-online.target
After=network-online.target

see also the notes in
http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.special.html for
that.
