Systemd should not introduce any new facilities. Distributions which still
need to support their non-standard/legacy facilities should add them as
patches to their packaging.
The following facilities are no longer recognized:
$x-display-manager
$mail-transfer-agent
$mail-transport-agent
$mail-transfer-agent
$smtp
$null
This target is no longer available:
mail-transfer-agent.target
This was premarily intended to support the LSB facility $httpd which is
only known by Fedora, and a bad idea since it lacks any real-life
usecase.
Similar, drop support for some other old Fedora-specific facilities.
Also, document the rules for introduction of new facilities, to clarify
the situation for the future.
#pragma once has been "un-deprecated" in gcc since 3.3, and is widely supported
in other compilers.
I've been using and maintaining (rebasing) this patch for a while now, as
it annoyed me to see #ifndef fooblahfoo, etc all over the place,
almost arrogant about the annoyance of having to define all these names to
perform a commen but neccicary functionality, when a completely superior
alternative exists.
I havn't sent it till now, cause its kindof a style change, and it is bad
voodoo to mess with style that has been established by more established
editors. So feel free to lambast me as a crazy bafoon.
v2 - preserve externally used headers
The rule is that units that encapsulate our own code are prefixed with
"systemd-". Since the fsck units invoke our own code, hence add the
missing prefix. Since a long long time the fsck units didn't invoke the
naked fsck binaries anymore, and it is unlikely that this well ever
change. On the opposite: the code in systemd-fsck will probably get more
complex over time to handle fsck progress to plymouth forwarding.
Same for quotacheck (but not quotaon!)
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.
