We should use either, and default.
I'm not sure that I parse your English properly. Could you be more
explict, preferably in a code review of
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/11291/ ?
On none systemd other distributions there is the concept of
'provides'.
This means that a service like vdsmd can depend on timesync and a service like chronyd
*AND* ntpd provide timesync.
This is kind of logical name for service.
Also other non systemd distributions provides the ability to script the dependencies.
I could not find either of he above methods in systemd documentation.
