Systemd contains many binaries and depends on a fairly large number

systemd (through %post, %preun, %postun macros used to install and uninstall
systemd units), which grows the dependency tree and increases the size of
minimal installs.
With this proposal systemd-units subpackages will be split out again:
systemd-units
Really not a fan of this, but you are proposing here to reintroduce a
"-units" package again, and it will container directories and
binaries, but no actual units? Did I get that right?
Like Kay I think a "systemd-filesystem.rpm" that owns the dirs would
be a better idea... In particular as the systemctl invocations are all
suffixed with "|| : > /dev/null 2> /dev/null" (at least the ones done
via our macros), and hence should become NOPs if systemd itself is
missing...
Not enthusiastic,
