The MeeGo distribution is still a supported distribution, but
will probably not see an updated version of systemd anymore.
Most of the development is focussing on Tizen now, and the
generic support for building --with-distro=other is more than
adequate enough.
This patch removes the support as a custom configuration build
target in systemd. People who are still building this for
the MeeGo distribution should build as "other" distro.
Rather than assuming the console is in utf-8 mode if nothing else is
specified, be a bit more robust and enable it explicitly.
This fixes a regression compared with Arch's initscripts when not
using a framebuffer as the old VGA console would not be in utf-8
mode by default.
Furthermore, this would allow vconsole-setup to be used after boot
to change the vconsole into utf-8 mode in case it has been set to
non-utf-8 mode for whatever reason. I.e, the following would leave
the console in utf-8 mode as expected:
# export LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1
# /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vconsole-setup
# export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
# /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vconsole-setup

We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
