Name        : systemd
Product     : Fedora 17
Version     : 44
Release     : 23.fc17
URL         : http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd
Summary     : A System and Service Manager
Description :
systemd is a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with
SysV and LSB init scripts. systemd provides aggressive parallelization
capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services,
offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using
Linux cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of the system
state, maintains mount and automount points and implements an
elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can
work as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This systemd update changes the default mount propagation to "shared". This will fix the unmounting of filesystems when services use the PrivateTmp feature.

Since the systemd developers do not pretend to understand all the implications of the change in all details, this update needs prolonged testing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
