Re: Is there a way to know inside of systemd if it's in a reboot state?

["Tia, Javier" <javier.tia@xxxxxxx>]

I had to make a little change to systemctl to use a file as a flag when 
the system is rebooting. Likely, this a use case that most people would 
not be interested in. And it might exist a better way to do it. Anyway, 
this is the patch:
