Comment (by daira):

 zs260: hi, i'm trying to create systemd for tahoe introducer. i got the
 client working fine, but for introducer, i need to run it in foreground
 mode, tahoe run, and it complains " looks like it contains a non-client
 node (tahoe-introducer.tac). Use tahoe start instead of tahoe run"

 zs260: introducer works fine with tahoe start, but when i use with
 systemd, type="forking", it does not work. systemd keeps waiting

 daira: oh, zs260 left. I was just about to answer their question

 daira: the fact that 'tahoe run' doesn't work for introducers (or key-
 generators or stats-gatherers) is a ticketed bug

 daira: #1159 (also #937 which was closed as a duplicate of #1159)

 daira: #1159 is likely to be fixed for 1.11
