Instead, document the necessary step to utilize older dbus versions.
2016-12-17README: bump dbus depZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
We should also mention this in NEWS before release. Suggested text: > DBus policy files are now installed into /usr rather than /etc. Make sure > your system has dbus = 1.9.18 running before upgrading to this version, or > override the install path with --with-dbuspolicydir=

Fixes #4365.
2016-10-05seccomp: add support for the s390 architecture (#4287)hbrueckner
Add seccomp support for the s390 architecture (31-bit and 64-bit) to systemd. This requires libseccomp >= 2.3.1.

It is required for %P is sysctl kernel.core_pattern. Fixes #2800.
2016-02-23Remove systemd-bootchartDaniel Mack
This commit rips out systemd-bootchart. It will be given a new home, outside of the systemd repository. The code itself isn't actually specific to systemd and can be used without systemd even, so let's put it somewhere else.
2016-02-12remove bus-proxydDaniel Mack
As kdbus won't land in the anticipated way, the bus-proxy is not needed in its current form. It can be resurrected at any time thanks to the history, but for now, let's remove it from the sources. If we'll have a similar tool in the future, it will look quite differently anyway. Note that stdio-bridge is still available. It was restored from a version prior to f252ff17, and refactored to make use of the current APIs.
2016-02-10coredump: dump priviliges when processing system coredumpsLennart Poettering
Let's add an extra-safety net and change UID/GID to the "systemd-coredump" user when processing coredumps from system user. For coredumps of normal users we keep the current logic of processing the coredumps from the user id the coredump was created under. Fixes: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87354

Since we moved to github the commits ML is basically dead, hence don't advertise it anymore.

2015-12-10README: Recommend kinvolk regarding engineering servicesLennart Poettering
They are our friends, do systemd development, hence add them.
2015-11-02core: drop check for /etc/mtabMartin Pitt
util-linux 2.27.1 now entirely stops looking at /etc/mtab, so we don't need to verify /etc/mtab during early boot any more. Later on, tmpfiles.d/etc.conf will fix /etc/mtab anyway, so there's not even a point in warning about it. Drop test_mtab() and bump the util-linux dependency to >= 2.17.1. Fixes #1495
2015-09-14mount: use libmount to monitor mountinfo & utabKarel Zak
The current implementation directly monitor /proc/self/mountinfo and /run/mount/utab files. It's really not optimal because utab file is private libmount stuff without any official guaranteed semantic. The libmount since v2.26 provides API to monitor mount kernel & userspace changes and since v2.27 the monitor is usable for non-root users too. This patch replaces the current implementation with libmount based solution. Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>

2015-09-06README: bump minimal required kernel versionLennart Poettering
We generally try to support 2y old kernels, which allows us bump the minimal required version to 3.11 now. Also, clarify that support for the unified cgroup hierarchy requires 4.2 or newer.

2015-05-28systemctl: drop hardcoded chkconfig invocationMartin Pitt
Introduce /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install [--root=] <action> <name> abstraction, replacing the direct calling of chkconfig. This allows distributions to call their specific tools like update-rc.d without patching systemd. Ship systemd-sysv-install.SKELETON as an example for packagers how to implement this. Drop the --enable-chkconfig configure option. Document this in README and point to it in NEWS.
2015-05-25swap: use swapon -oKarel Zak
This patch simplify swapon usage in systemd. The command swapon(8) since util-linux v2.26 supports "-o <list>". The idea is exactly the same like for mount(8). The -o specifies options in fstab-compatible way. For systemd it means that it does not have to care about things like "discard" or another swapon specific options. swapon -o <options-from-fstab> For backward compatibility the code cares about "Priority:" swap unit field (for a case when Priority: is set, but pri= in the Options: is missing).
