No longer override the default kernel font if nothing is specified in vconsole.conf. The default kernel font[0] provides ISO-8859-1 and box characters. Users of Arabic, Cyrilic or Hebrew must set a different font manually as these character sets were provided by the old default font [1], but are not any longer. Rationale: * it is counter-intuitive that an empty vconsole.conf file is different from adding FONT=""; * the version of the default font shipped with Arch (which is the upstream one) behaves very badly during early boot[2] (which should admittedly be fixed in the font itself); * the kernel already supplies a default font, it seems reasonable to use that unless anything else is specified; * This also avoids a needless slow call to setfont; and * We don't want to work around problems in the kernel (in case the compiled-in font is not acceptable for whatever reason).

In fact, systemd-hostnamed will warn if nss-myhostname is not installed. Packagers are encouraged to add a dependency on nss-myhostname to the package that includes systemd-hostnamed. Note that D-Bus can link against libsystemd-login.so, which results in a cyclic build dependency. To accommodate for this please build D-Bus without systemd first, then build systemd, then rebuild D-Bus with systemd support. WARNINGS: systemd will warn you during boot if /etc/mtab is not a symlink to /proc/mounts. Please ensure that /etc/mtab is a proper symlink. systemd will warn you during boot if /usr is on a different file system than /. While in systemd itself very little will break if /usr is on a separate partition many of its dependencies very likely will break sooner or later in one form or another. For example udev rules tend to refer to binaries in /usr, binaries that link to libraries in /usr or binaries that refer to data files in /usr. Since these breakages are not always directly visible systemd will warn about this, since this kind of file system setup is not really supported anymore by the basic set of Linux OS components.
