This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together. Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to change bits that are part of our copyright header for that. hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a bit.

|
|
|
|
<para><filename>systemd-ask-password-console.service</filename> is
|
|
a system service that queries the user for system passwords (such
|
|
as hard disk encryption keys and SSL certificate passphrases) on
|
|
the console. It is intended to be used during boot to ensure
|
|
proper handling of passwords necessary for boot.
|
|
<filename>systemd-ask-password-wall.service</filename> is a system
|
|
service that informs all logged in users for system passwords via
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>wall</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
|
It is intended to be used after boot to ensure that users are
|
|
properly notified.</para>
