requesting the current iteration counter of the event loop. It starts
at zero and is increased by one with each event loop iteration.
+ * A new rpm macro %systemd_ordering is provided by the macros.systemd
+ file. It can be used in lieu of %systemd_requires in packages which
+ don't use any systemd functionality and are intended to be installed
+ in minimal containers without systemd present. This macro provides
+ ordering dependecies to ensure that if the package is installed in
+ the same rpm transaction as systemd, systemd will be installed before
+ the scriptlets for the package are executed, allowing unit presets
+ to be handled.
+
+ New macros %_systemdgeneratordir and %_systemdusergeneratordir have
+ been added to simplify packaging of generators.
+
+ * The os-release file gained VERSION_CODENAME field for the
+ distribution nickname (e.g. VERSION_CODENAME=woody).
+
+ * New udev property UDEV_DISABLE_PERSISTENT_STORAGE_RULES_FLAG=1
+ can be set to disable parsing of metadata and the creation
+ of persistent symlinks for that device.
+
+ * The change to tag framebuffer devices (/dev/fb*) with "uaccess"
+ to make them available to logged in users has been reverted.
+
* Configuration for "mkosi" is now part of the systemd
repository. mkosi is a tool to easily build legacy-free OS images,
and is available on github: https://github.com/systemd/mkosi. If
