sorry to bring up the discussion again but I still have some grey areas in my head.
According to the systemd snippets [1], the new macros should be only for NEW packages, i.e. those that never had a SysV init script.
I have a few questions:
1- Since the packages I mantain build on RHEL5+ and Fedora 16+ (and have for a long time), can I assume these macros in the spec file is optional?
If that's the case, what should I do with the bugs opened?
2- What's the status of the back-port of those macros to F16/F17 (with a different expansion of course)? Is it under evaluation? Should I wait for the resolution of this before starting to add the macros?
3- If I should start putting the macros in now in the spec files and still keep the option to build the same package on all EPEL/Fedora supported distributions, can I assume RHEL 7 = Fedora 18 for the various %if/%elif?
Thanks,
