It's a package that fakes systemd presence in system. It's solely intended for Docker images as we don't want systemd there (at least as long as it takes to prepare systemd-container Michal is working on). I made a mistake and it ended up being pulled in buildroot.
Ping me on IRC if you have more questions or comments.
So what is "systemd-container" supposed to do? And what precisely is "fakesystemd" supposed to do? And that "mini" thing?
fakesystemd owns same directories systemd does and has set provides to
Surely the proper, at least standard, way of dealing with creation/ownership of a directory structure that's needed by other packages would be systemd-filesystem like so many other packages handle it (yes, I'm aware this is just one of the issues attempting to be addressed by the above package).
