Unfortunately, as more packages get more and more intertwined with an
ever changing systemd, this will likely remain a problem that will need
to be solved over and over again. No need to port all of gnome, but
there was a lot of packages that will change. I don't know how the BSD
guys are gonna do it. How does webos handle wifi? Wifi might be the
first rubber hits road obstacle.
