Debian does the same, there's a "deb-systemd-helper" wrapper called in the postinst scripts which then does that. > Longer term, I want to move this to filetriggers.

I believe .deb supports something like this? Yes, it has for many years. We've used it for ldconfig, rebuilding the initrd, updating gsettings schemas and the like, but not so far for units (and not sure if we actually should, given that not all units *should* be enabled by default -- hence we want to keep this knowledge in the package only). > But ultimately this is just a "recommendation" and there is nothing > stopping you being a rebel :D Heh; well, we deliberately wanted to start discussing it here first, as none of this is really very distro specific. After all, one of systemd's aims is to make all the various distros somewhat more alike. I. e. if that "minimal /etc/" proposal is refused, we just go on and live with the clutter.
