Package: systemd
Version: 215-17
Severity: normal


Hey.

I was running some tests on the differences between a systemd
that was kept constantly at sid level and such that was upgraded
from wheezy to jessie.

During that I've noticed that /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid have
entries like the following on the sid system:
systemd-timesync:165536:65536
systemd-network:231072:65536
systemd-resolve:296608:65536
systemd-bus-proxy:362144:65536

whereas the jessie system doesn't have.

Both run obviously with systemd and since the version of systemd
is the same in jessie and sid I'd have assumed that the files
would have either both these entries or neither of them.


So maybe this is either a case of:
- something's missing in jessie (why?)
or
- something's to much in my sid installation (which would then smell
  after legacy stuff from an intermediate version that hasn't been
  cleaned up properly.


In any cases, this is the pointer for you maintainers, since you have
probably a better clue than I do :-)


Cheers,
Chris.

This is what we have subscribed to. Thus I'm closing this bug.
