It's not a config file, it's the default service. I mean, we could manage the one in /etc instead, but I don't know that that's that much better. You could make the argument that the symlink in /lib is the system maintained software, and therefore is the proper one. Honestly, I'd prefer that 'systemctl enable', when called from spec files, enable under /lib to better define what the system defaults are. Of course, that might be better handled with the preset code. Bill -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
