Failed to start logid.service: Unit logid.service not found

[mattdillon100]

OS: Ubuntu 24.10

I have followed the instructions to the letter and tried several times. Everytime, after sudo make install, when I run sudo service logid start I get

Failed to start logid.service: Unit logid.service not found.

I can see in the cmake command that it cannot find systemd, which is indeed missing from Ubuntu 24.10. Is this the issue? If so, how do I get the service started?

Log output from previous commands:

Ok, so I found this issue. I had to created the service file manually. This might be a good place for @PixlOne to let us know why I had to do this but my bet is the systemd stuff above
