Bug ID: 1225599
Summary: default-on for pmcd/etc. under new fedora packaging
guidelines
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: pcp
Assignee: nathans@xxxxxxxxxx
Reporter: fche@xxxxxxxxxx
QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
CC: brolley@xxxxxxxxxx, fche@xxxxxxxxxx, lberk@xxxxxxxxxx,

As per https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1446 and
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:DefaultServices etc., future fedoras
will permit services to be on-by-default as long as they don't bind to external
network interfaces. So, if our pmcd etc. services grew an option to bind only
to localhost / AF_UNIX, and those options were set in/via the .service files,
those services could be added to the distro's systemd-presets file.
The fedora policy guidelines unfortunately don't note a preferred method for
opening up the services for network access, should a sysadmin later want
cross-network capabilities. Instead of hand-editing a .service file, maybe an
EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/pcp-network-p driven common option flag? Maybe
packaged in another pcp-network-enable subrpm that also opens up the system
firewall upon installation?
