More specifically, file triggers handle automatically installations or updates
of files for sysusers, tmpfiles, hwdb, journal catalog, udev rules, sysctl and
binfmt.
Therefore it makes a bunch of systemd rpm macros (such as %udev_hwdb_update,
%udev_rules_update, %journal_catalog_update, %tmpfiles_create,
%sysusers_create and so on) not needed anymore. However before considering
simplifying your spec files beware that these changes are not available in SLE
yet and will probably never reach the current releases (latest one being
SLE15-SP5 as of this writing).
Macros dealing with unit restart/enabling (such as %systemd_pre,
%service_add_pre, %service_del_postun, ...) are still needed though. However
reloading of systemd instances (and thus restarting of units) are delayed
until the very end of the package install/update transaction and is now done
only once.
Nevertheless to fully take advantage of file triggers, users have to activate
a specific zypper transaction backend which is still considered as
experimental, see bsc#1041742 for details.
- Provide a (slighlty) customized version of systemd-update-helper. Some of the
systemd rpm macros rely now on the helper and delegate their work to it. Hence
we don't need to rebuild all packages anymore when the content of the rpm
macros must be updated/fixed.

(sub) package that contains all the fixups relative to a (sub) package. This
has the advantage to limit the number of scripts but more importantly it will
ease the sharing of the spec file between TW and SLE. We should also be able
to compare the fixlets of two distros even if the spec files have diverged.
Note that all the fixups are run just once now.

So `machinectl import-tar` always works flawlessly. systemd-container already
is an optional package and both tar and gpg are rather basic anyway so no harm
should be done by requiring them.
- Move the systemd sysupdate stuff from the main package to the experimental
sub-package while it's still time. The method used (currently) for updating
openSUSE distro is rpm, not systemd-sysupdate.

sub-package: they may deserve a dedicated sub-package in the future but for
now move them to udev so they aren't installed in systemd based containers.
- Move a bunch of components operating on (mainly block) devices into udev as
without udev they're most likely useless.

systemd-sysvinit was probably provided to allow systems to switch from
sysvinit to systemd by overwriting /sbin/init with a link to systemd. But this
isn't very useful anymore due to the fact that sysvinit is not supported since
several years. Therefore the subpackage contains now the files needed to keep
backward compatibility with SysV init scripts (most notably sysv-generator)
and has been renamed accordingly. The few files that are not specific to
sysvinit (such as /bin/init) have been moved to the main package.
Normally this new subpackage shouldn't be needed (since all packages use
systemd unit files) unless a 3rd party application is installed and still
relies on SysV init scripts.

41334be59e meson: minor cleanup
3db0c28462 sysusers: split up systemd.conf
- Drop 0012-resolved-create-etc-resolv.conf-symlink-at-runtime.patch (bsc#1195153)
Since v241, the patch isn't useful anymore because resolved is no more able to
create /etc/resolv.conf symlink by itself,it runs as 'systemd-resolve'
user. The symlink is now handled by a tmpfiles config file which is only
installed when systemd-resolved is. The tmpfiles config file has currently a
lower priority than the one shipped by netconfig.
