Not a systemd supporter in any way but I don't think making a profile makes sense because we already have profiles for kde, gnome, desktop etc. Users will probably want to use systemd in-conjunction with any one of those, so we would need to have kde-systemd, gnome-systemd .. which is absurd. At least I don't see a sane way to achieve it from my rudimentary understanding of profiles. -- - Yohan Pereira The difference between a Miracle and a Fact is exactly the difference between a mermaid and a seal. -- Mark Twain
