Description:
The systemd package complains when installing to an NFS root, because of the use of setcap in the .install script. NFS does not support capabilities. See also https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/31748 for a proposed solution.

...
(21/80) upgrading systemd [############################] 100%
Failed to set capabilities on file `usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt' (Operation not supported)
usage: setcap [-q] [-v] (-r|-|<caps>) <filename> [ ... (-r|-|<capsN>) <filenameN> ]

Note <filename> must be a regular (non-symlink) file.
==> journald now writes to /var/log/journal by default. This can be
controlled with the Storage setting in /etc/systemd/journald.conf
New optional dependencies for systemd
python: systemd library bindings

Additional info:
* systemd 195.2

Sure, I'll add this for next release. There will be a warning when it falls back to using setuid.
