Known Issues with Installing from the above packages

The 'onedrive' client will automatically startup post 'authentication' without any further actions. In some circumstances this may be highly undesirable.

This is because, when the package is installed, the following symbolic link is created:

Created symlink /etc/systemd/user/default.target.wants/onedrive.service → /usr/lib/systemd/user/onedrive.service.
