Is this really warranted? When workarounds are needed to correct a new change -- there is a problem. And for 20+ years, every program that needs a specific port has looked to /etc/services. That means every program (other than those updated or patched by the opensuse team) will fail to find the services file in the new location (unless patched by the user)
No application is reading /etc/services directly. They all use the glibc interface for this. No need to patch any application.
