Name        : systemd
Product     : Fedora 21
Version     : 216
Release     : 5.fc21
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:

Systemd version is bumped to 216+. Most changes in 216 and post 216 are bugfixes and small feature additions, too many to individualy backport. Problematic changes (handling of ntp server choice, readahead removal) are not part of this update. Some legacy files (/etc/inittab, utmp, wtmp, btmp, and sysctl files) are moved from initscripts to systemd.
