As stated before, we argued about this, but this is what we had to factor in: * Lots of packages had services that were enabled by default, but should not have been * Certain services used to need to be enabled by default in a pre-systemd universe, but no longer need to be. * There is no way to differentiate between a service which is on because it was set that way by the package and on because the user made a conscious choice to set it that way. * Runlevels and ordering in the SysV universe don't have exact mappings in the systemd model, and we have to assume that it is possible that both have been customized by the user. So, for Fedora 16, we decided to force a clean reset of the proper defaults for services, as decided by FESCo, and: * Save a copy of the runlevel and priority status of the service being migrated to systemd * Provide a simple tool (/usr/bin/systemd-sysv-convert in systemd-sysv, 150 lines of python) that can take the saved service status and make an attempt to convert it to systemd, so that if the user wishes to view or restore the same settings they had prior to the upgrade, they can do so. I'm not terribly interested in revisiting this painful discussion, and to be honest, just want to move past it. ~tom == Fedora Project -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk54n+AACgkQPF6ZrZMFQmDC0gCdHIMyoPWo/aDwklH078ymwQkQ qTcAn2yE5F2D9In+usCUwUbvcB3MIJtB =7j/h -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
