Oh god, stop this, will you?

The folks in question knew I would drop the patch. In the original bug
I even said I would remove the work-around from systemd.rpm after TC1
of the last cycle. I was nice, left it in for the whole cycle, only
dropped it now.

There is no news in all of this, I just removed the work-around now, as
indicated back then.

How many months would you like me to notify people in advance of a
simple change like this? Isn't 6 month *ample* time?

How much time do you think is appropriate for fixing a file copy
routine in anaconda? 12 months? 18 months? 2 years?

Also, NM fixed a similar issue with /etc/resolve.conf in their code a
long time ago, to my knowledge. Am I so misguided to assume that
Anaconda can fix a fricking file copy too, in all those months?
