The problem is lots of services require systemd because they ship a unit file and want systemctl reload to happen. Systemd then triggers a require for udev and kmod, which docker containers do not need. rpm -q --whatrequires systemd| wc -l 151 On rawhide I see 151 packages on my system which require systemd. We have a couple of options we could add a package called fakesystemd which provides a /usr/bin/systemctl that does nothing and does a provides systemd in the specfile. Then if the user wanted to install systemd into a container it would need to obsolete the fakesystemd package. Or we could break out /usr/bin/systemctl into its own package and have it be smart enough to do nothing if systemd did not exist. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
