7 First of all, you should check your tone and secondly, you are clearly
8 not understanding the situation as you are oversimplifying a complex
9 situation.
10 For example, Xfce works on non-systemd systems with any of these UPower
11 versions, so forcing upower-pm-utils with USE="-systemd" would simply
12 be bogus.
13 If you are looking for a system that decides everything for you, and
14 doesn't give you options what to install, you are propably better off using
15 some binary distribution with smaller set of possibilities.
