There are already several packages doing it that way, just with etc/default Maybe, with your background knowledge I can convince upstream to change this: EnvironmentFile=-/usr/lib/irqbalance/defaults.env to this: EnvironmentFile=-/usr/etc/default/irqbalance for my package or at least make it autoconf/meson configurable...
Long story short: How are other distros doing this?
Defaults compiled in and overwrite in /etc/default or /etc/sysconfig (Debian vs. Fedora)
Do we want to get rid of fillup scripts and /etc/sysconfig and how?
Long term we need to get rid of fillup, it does not work with image based updates (image as of /usr, not full disk images)
Is the double Environmentfile (/usr/etc and /etc) a suitable solution, maybe collect them in separate dir?
Yes, and that's working fine.
That's the answer I hoped to read... Thanks, Thomas
