you definition of a clean system is not mine

when i see that services which was not converted to systemd
needs features which were not available with the systemd
of F15 this is a clear sign that systemd was NOT ready for
a GA release

so updates should make it ready for GA

how do you imagine that even maintainers could have
converted services for the F15 release with a
non-finished systemd-version?

in my opinion if a core component is changed it must
not be put in GA before it is ready or if it was too
early it should been fixed in all points of view instead
forcing users "take the next dist-upgrade and look what
components we broke there"
