fedora
Calendar Grey November 1, 2016
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Solution for assertion failure within systemd's void notification message on Fedora 23, improving overall system reliability.
Fix for the assertion failure on empty notification message (#1380287).

Summary

systemd is a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with

SysV and LSB init scripts. systemd provides aggressive parallelization

capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services,

offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using

Linux cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of the system

state, maintains mount and automount points and implements an

elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can

work as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.

Fix for the assertion failure on empty notification message (#1380287).
