I forgot to mention that - I haven't typed the letters dnf at all on
this system until I wrote this email.
Yum is what I know, yum is what I use.
Also forgot to mention that I have systemd-208-9.fc20.x86_64
I am not sure if dnf is the problem here. I updated my system yesterday
using dnf and (thankfully?) did not see this problem. Just for
comparison, here is a subset of packages I have in commmon with Ankur's
list -
# rpm -qa NetworkManager qt selinux-policy libreoffice firewalld
firewall-config initscripts | sort
firewall-config-0.3.9-1.fc20.noarch
firewalld-0.3.9-1.fc20.noarch
initscripts-9.51-1.fc20.x86_64
NetworkManager-0.9.9.0-24.git20131003.fc20.x86_64
qt-4.8.5-14.fc20.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.12.1-116.fc20.noarch
For the sake of completeness, I run XFCE here and my systemd is
systemd-208-9.fc20.x86_64
