Description

Various wait_until_some_condition_is_met constructs used here and there should be factored out in the Tails shell library.

Perhaps just moving to systemd (Feature #5821) will solve most of these cases.

We should reevaluate the status of this ticket, now that we have Feature #5821.

We now have wait_until and try_for in our shell library. The places where they’re used are not good candidates for systemd-ification. Then I’ve reviewed all the places where we use while in shell scripts and the only candidate is already tracked on Feature #7545 => closing :)
