For systemd, split /lib is deprecated and only checked if a split /lib and /usr/lib is enabled. /etc is meant for local customizations to the default service files. It is my opinion that buildroot should install all upstream package and buildroot-provided service files in /usr/lib, and this series cleans up our packages to do exactly that. Enabling them by default by linking them to /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants has been preserved.

It appears that historically, buildroot's systemd installation location has been switched between /lib and /usr/lib multiple times. I couldn't find any particular reason for this, so I've moved it back to /usr/lib along with its service files.

Thanks for helping improving this point. :)

Just one global comment:
In the series, you change all relative symlink with absolute one.
We use to use relative symlink to avoid confusing people looking at
the target tree because they are still right.

I don't have strong opinion about this, so let's see what others think about it.

Regards,
