"service" passes through, but that was determined to be confusing. If you want to make an initscript stub, you can, but it needs to be in a separate subpackage, per the guidelines. We're trying not to have unit files and sysv initscripts in the same package, whether they're stubs or not. ~tom == Fedora Project -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
