Well, the point is that systemd isn't running or even installed when the
daemons are installed.  The question is what happens when systemd comes
up later.  (And yes, systemd could use rpm file triggers so that we can
drop the scriptlets entirely.  That would be great, but it's an entirely
separate discussion.)

I know this thread has gone in a completely different direction, but the
original message was about modifying or removing the dependencies.  Can
we drop dependencies on systemd and still have a system that works as
expected if systemd gets installed later?  If so, then dropping the
dependency doesn't actually hurt anything since the kernel will still
pull it in, and thus the other arguments about this become kind of
pointless.
