8 Probably your following comment in bug report summarizes the real
9 reasons pointing you to not apply that patch after waiting a year for
10 upstream action:

13 Reading your comments in bug report gave me the impression of you
14 refusing to provide the unit file simply to try to interfere as much as
15 possible with getting higher systemd compatibility in Gentoo, even if I
16 don't see how adding the unit file will hurt openrc users and how it
17 will hurt you (as co-maintainer) when another dev is taking care of unit
18 file and systemd team can also maintain it.

20 We can now have long discussions about upstream decisions, how to handle
21 devrel problems... but I think it's much more easy: this kind of
22 "boycott" attitudes should stop in favor of common sense.
