16dad32e43 Reword sentences that contain psuedo-English "resp."
As you likely know, Arch Linux is in the process of moving to systemd.
So I was reading through the various systemd docs and quickly became
baffled by this new abbreviation "resp.", which I've never seen before
in my English-mother-tongue life.

Some quick Googling turned up a reference:
<http://www.transblawg.eu/index.php?/archives/870-Resp.-and-other-non-existent-English-wordsNicht-existente-englische-Woerter.html>

I guess it's a literal translation of the German "Beziehungsweise", but
English doesn't work the same way. The word "respectively" is used
exclusively to provide an ordering connection between two lists. E.g.
"the prefixes k, M, and G refer to kilo-, mega-, and giga-,
respectively." It is also never abbreviated to "resp." So the sentence
"Sets the default output resp. error output for all services and
sockets" makes no sense to a natural English speaker.

This patch removes all instances of "resp." in the man pages and
replaces them with sentences which are much more clear and, hopefully,
grammatically valid. In almost all instances, it was simply replacing
"resp." with "or," which the original author (Lennart?) could probably
just do in the future.

The only other instances of "resp." are in the src/ subtree, which I
don't feel privileged to correct.

cb07866b1b man: move header file man pages from section 7 to 3
This way we can include documentation about minor macros/inline function
within the introducionary man page in a sane way.

5430f7f2bc relicense to LGPLv2.1 (with exceptions)
We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.

Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.

The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.

The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.

2b583ce657 use /run instead of /dev/.run
Instead of the /dev/.run trick we have currently implemented, we decided
to move the early-boot runtime dir to /run.

An existing /var/run directory is bind-mounted to /run. If /var/run is
already a symlink, no action is taken.

An existing /var/lock directory is bind-mounted to /run/lock.
If /var/lock is already a symlink, no action is taken.

To implement the directory vs. symlink logic, we have a:
  ConditionPathIsDirectory=
now, which is used in the mount units.

Skipped mount unit in case of symlink:
  $ systemctl status var-run.mount
  var-run.mount - Runtime Directory
    Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/var-run.mount)
    Active: inactive (dead)
            start condition failed at Fri, 25 Mar 2011 04:51:41 +0100; 6min ago
     Where: /var/run
      What: /run
    CGroup: name=systemd:/system/var-run.mount

The systemd rpm needs to make sure to add something like:
  %pre
  mkdir -p -m0755 /run >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
or it needs to be added to filesystem.rpm.

Udev -git already uses /run if that exists, and is writable at bootup.
Otherwise it falls back to the current /dev/.udev.

Dracut and plymouth need to be adopted to switch from /dev/.run to run
too.

Cheers,
Kay
