Apache:

and now you can use the same systemd-unit on a dozens of machines and include specific config snippets WITOUT touch the systemd-unit or *anything* else in the apache configuration

You apparently did not read or grasp what I said earlier.

This is something you do via unit overwrite configuration snipped in conjunction with your Apache configuration changes not in an environment file.


perhaps it's time to
start looking into obsoleting it

don't get me wrong but you sound once again like seek for changes to break users configuration to later blame users why they did not fix which ain't broken


You cannot be gotten right.

The follow up cleanup process in Fedora that I needed to conduct after the unit migration was completed, would have among other things obsoleted and removed those Fedora/RedHat specific environment files since it became clear immediately at that time that they had been obsoleted.

We would have done that immediately in F14/F15 when we started the migration work but we had other political issues surrounding systemd to deal with at that time without having to add the obsolete of those legacy sysv initscripts environment files that Redhat holds so dear.

I even created specific git repository without that environment file entry's specific to Redhat so that unit I migrated could be reused and shared amongst other distributions at that time as well being more likely to be accepted upstreams ( of those atleast I was in contact with ) only wanted to maintain a single unit file but cross distribution compatibility and the importance of it is something you dont seem to be capable of grasping since the only use cases that matters is the one that is specific and relevant to you.
