zram-generator has no service unit file at all.

This service is not permanent it's created by the generator, and is the only service unit I see.

I would like a pointer to address those minor issues. Conflicting implementations. I recommend removing both anaconda and zram packages.

I removed it as it > cause longer delay on boot and the swap partition is deleted. It's no longer needed. This is a hibernation hint. If you have no need for hibernation, you can remove it. If you have disabled/removed the disk based swap partition/LV then you can also remove this resume hint, because you can't hibernate anyway. > I noticed a more responsive system compared with the traditional setting > with swap partition.
