Ben,

We've been working together, in the same team(s), for more than 4
years and we never had a single problem in co-maintaining packages. I
would never expected you to make so much noise because I committed a
file (yes a file, *not* a patch) that changes absolutely *nothing* to
existing users but it helps all those users who want to use systemd.

I am very disappointed and confused.

You should have known me better by now.

We are moving too quickly on bug #448882 ([Tracker] packages not providing systemd units). We should come to better consensus on systemd integration and we were getting there with the idea of INSTALL_MASK. I don't know that it is a working solution yet. I have to oppose adding unit files unless we have a way to opt out for reasons I gave earlier, regarding embedded systems where one needs to conserve space aggressively. And we may have found a way to do so without cluttering ebuilds with USE flags.

Can I ask the systemd people to design a working solution for opting out? I can't support this initiative without such a solution and I would be happy to work with the systemd people to reach it, ie I'll test.
