Would it be reasonable to extend chkconfig so that it can know which
services it can no longer control and provide a pointer blurb to
admins when they try to use chkconfig with those services in the F14
timeframe. The reality is any change to scriptable behaviour is a
pitchfork wielding mob scenario. (mental note: this would make a good
Simpson's episode)


If we are breaking curmudgeony workflows it be really nice to provide
some breadcrumbs along the way to help us old dogs learn new tricks.
Admins are going to need to learn how to use and configure systemd
native configs in the F14 timeframe, feedback from the "legacy" system
tools when we need to recondition our muscle memory and are scripted
actions would go a long way to lowering the frustration level...if the
native/legacy tool break can't be avoided.
