From d0d5f0f778e6d95f2237b3bfcff9a2634c0557ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek Date: Sat, 15 Oct 2016 16:46:13 -0400 Subject: man: drop discouragment of runtime and vendor drop-ins In certain situations drop-ins in /usr/lib/ are useful, for example when one package wants to modify the behaviour of another package, or the vendor wants to tweak some upstream unit without patching. Drop-ins in /run are useful for testing, and may also be created by systemd itself. Follow-up for the discussion in #2103. --- man/systemd.unit.xml | 4 +--- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 3 deletions(-) (limited to 'man') diff --git a/man/systemd.unit.xml b/man/systemd.unit.xml index 79bdb2cd38..a4f5711d7a 100644 --- a/man/systemd.unit.xml +++ b/man/systemd.unit.xml @@ -203,9 +203,7 @@ /run/systemd/system directories.
