Hi, the systemd package is getting a systemd-networkd subpackage split out that will contain systemd-networkd, networkctl, and the associated data files. This was requested by coreos maintainers: NetworkManager is used and skipping systemd-networkd allows the installation footprint and potential user confusion to be reduced a bit. (By 1.6 MB and an unknown amount, respectively.) Appropriate Obsoletes are added on both the main package and the new systemd-networkd subpackage, so the systemd-networkd subpackage should be installed on upgrades. In addition, the new subpackage has Recommends from the main package, so it will be installed in normal installations. The split affects installations with --setopt=install_weak_deps=False. Please make sure to pull in systemd-networkd.rpm independently if needed. Also note that systemd-networkd.service was preset as *disabled* in Fedora, which means that unless it was enabled by the user, the removal of systemd-networkd wouldn't have an effect. In addition, two more new subpackages are created: systemd-standalone-sysusers and systemd-standalone-tmpfiles, with custom-linked systemd-sysusers and systemd-tmpfiles binaries. They packages are 170kB and 260kB and pull in much less dependencies compared to the normal systemd package (only glibc, libselinux, and libacl). The goal here is to be able to use those packages in limited environments where systemd itself is not necessary. The main systemd systemd package Obsoletes the -standalone- packages, so it should smoothly replace them whenever it is pulled in. This change was done in systemd-246.6-2.fc34 in rawhide right now. (There are some cleanups to move more files to the -networkd subpackage in the works for 246.6-3.fc34). Please give this a spin and report any issues. The plan is to also do this split for F33 if no issues are noted in rawhide.
