That argument seems like a straw man, considering that the file to be tested for was provided by the previous version of mysql-server, and that the test would only be made when we know we are upgrading (not freshly installing) mysql-server. It's hardly likely that anyone was providing a conflicting version of it. Moreover, what's the downside if someone did? His sysv-based boot configuration would get migrated to systemd. Not exactly fatal, I think. > Please read the link I posted to Ville's message instead[1]_. Thanks, but I do not intend to make it my job to do extensive testing of someone else's scriptlets. This work should have been done by the systemd team before foisting a poorly-thought-out upgrade process on the rest of us. On balance I still think that Michal's solution is the least risky. None of these solutions are perfect, but that one is the least likely to fail over time. regards, tom lane -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
