The ones I had don't apply anymore.

That's a statement, not a question :) I've been discussing this a lot the
past few months (conferences, irc, jabber) and I think we should have a
distro feature for every init system: sysvinit, systemd, upstart, openrc,
etc. I'm not sure if those would need to be mutually exclusive or not.

And finally: let's not make a lot of subpackages for things containing only
tmpfiles.d snippets. Consistency is good, but don't go overboard.

Koen
