That's a good idea, thanks Paul.
Being paranoid I'm thinking of adding a step:
%global use_systemd %([ -d /run/lock ] && rpm --quiet -qf /run/lock && echo 1
|| echo 0)
that should make sure /run/lock is not there because it happened that sysadmin
just decided create it manually and doesn't happen to run any systemd... Does
that make sense?
