There is no such thing as a non-systemd profile; a sub directory is a |
| 25 |
specialization, that doesn't mean that it parents suddenly become the |
| 26 |
opposite of that. No, the parents are just generalizations that aren't |
| 27 |
as specific as the sub directory. |

Doing what you've suggested everywhere but in gnome/systemd and |
| 30 |
kde/systemd is a recipe to upset everyone whom runs systemd on another |
| 31 |
desktop environment than GNOME or KDE; so, that's not a way forward. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Another option is to create no-systemd sub directories; but such |
| 34 |
profiles will be highly controversial, besides helping the exponential |
| 35 |
grow of the profiles directories as well as be a non-default profile. |

Mix-ins from Funtoo, anyone? |
