As a quick audit (based on 'grep _initrddir' and 'grep _initddir' over a fairly recent checkout of the spec files in pkg git, and then some manual inspection) I think the following packages will be affected: athcool bdii * ceph * cfengine clement dahdi-tools dhcp_probe dpm-dsi * fts * globus-gatekeeper * globus-gridftp-server * globus-scheduler-event-generator * greylistd imagefactory * ip-sentinel mysql-proxy * ncid nessus-core nightview * noip nordugrid-arc * nxtvepg openscada opentracker orbited Perlbal perl-mogilefs-server pnp4nagios * popfile psad qpid-qmf * RabbIT * ris-linux root * roundup sagator * ser sigul smstools * sys_basher * tabled tetrinetx tmda ulogd vmpsd voms * Vuurmuur vzctl xtide yum-utils * At least ceph appears to have systemd support upstream already, possibly others do too. At least yum-utils only needs sysvinit scripts for one particular subpackage. Packages with a * are also built in either RHEL7 or EPEL7. Also, pdsh and w3c-markup-validator are calling sysinit-style "reload" commands in scriptlets, so probably that's already broken. - ajax -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
