The idea is that if someone writes a systemd unit file today, they're not going to need to change its syntax, or where they put it, or how they enable it in future releases, unless they're changing it to use *new* features of systemd. > > GENERAL SANITY > > - Booting a system shall achieve a similar result as booting in upstart: > > -- The same set of services will be started. > > I don't think this is a requirement on systemd, really.

I meant 'as booting in upstart on the same release'.

It's a place where systemd can cause regressions due to the change in how services are started. See the current (now fixed?)

I wasn't treating gettys as a service, but we can reword this. Bill -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
