Unable to run judgedeamon as a service, documentation seems to be incorrect #2681

Description of the problem

When trying to run the judgehost deamon as a service, I get an error.

Your environment

Steps to reproduce

The manual states the following:

The judgedaemon can also be run as a service by running:

sudo systemctl enable --now domjudge-judgehost

This gives me:

Failed to enable unit: Unit file domjudge-judgehost.service does not exist.

Looking at the domjudge source files, it seems that the way to launch the judgedeamon as a service has changed to the following:

sudo systemctl enable --now domjudge-judgehost.target

This does launch, and the deamon becomes active after this. For me, the judgehost still does not show up in the domjudge web interface, but I'm assuming that's a separate issue.

Short on time to investigate, but possibly related to #2086

Yes, that one was fixed in main with more documentation during the installation (See: ec7ca6c710d45b4bfa21e06be02d35d69a599998).

I think the problem here is that we need to update the documentation for 8.2 & 8.3 as in certain cases autocomplete does not pick this up.
