I don't really think systemd-sysusers fits the scope of the systemd-container package and a separate binary package for systemd-sysusers seems like overkill. Now, regarding my concerns: The size increase is one (which will affect everyone if we ship it s part of the systemd package). More importantly, enabling a new feature means we'll have to support it in the future as people will eventually make use of it. So we better have a good reason to turn it on. Maybe I missed it, but I haven't quite understood yet, why rkt has a hard (and not a soft) depenency on systemd-sysusers. The upstream bug report that was referenced earlier wasn't really enlightening in that regard. As for the bug severity ping pong: sorry for that, this wasn't really necessary and is just off-putting. In the end it doesn't really change anything though in the issue at hand. Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
