--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : systemd
Product     : Fedora 16
Version     : 37
Release     : 19.fc16
URL         : http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd
Summary     : A System and Service Manager
Description :
systemd is a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with
SysV and LSB init scripts. systemd provides aggressive parallelization
capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services,
offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using
Linux cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of the system
state, maintains mount and automount points and implements an
elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can
work as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This systemd update fixes several bugs:
* fix assertion failures in dbus code with non-UTF8 strings in the configuration
* fix closing of file descriptors for chrooted services (bz#784921)
* add a warning for invalid Key=Value pairs outside of config sections 
(bz#783134)
* fix an assertion failure on invalid mount units with a missing What= value 
(bz#768523)
* make per-connection service names unique (fdo#45297)
* workaround the missing udev watches on dm devices in order to fix the 
handling of `swap` and `tmp` devices in /etc/crypttab (bz#711394)

Minor enhancements:
* nspawn: mount /etc/timezone into nspawn environment too
* small updates to manpages
