Description

systemd-networkd for EPEL8

Red Hat decided not to ship systemd-networkd in RHEL 8 and recommends NetworkManager instead (bug 1650342). I like networkd better on my servers so I adapted Red Hat's systemd spec file so there is an additional package "systemd-networkd".

Beta status: I'm using this package for several VMs which have pretty simple networking configurations. Please run your own tests before using this in production.

Limitations:

  • I can not provide any security support. If there is a security bug in networkd Red Hat will likely not publish updates as they are not affected. If patching is easy I'm willing to carry an extra patch but I can't promise anything.
  • Delays/breakage whenever Red Hat updates systemd: Right now systemd-networkd requires a very specific version of systemd. Probably I could relax the requirements but I wanted to err on the side of caution. It might take a while until I can update this package ("a while" as in "weeks", not just "days").

Please send github pull requests if you spot errors/want to help with security fixes.
