+I am sure.  The only symlink in /etc/systemd/system is default.target,
+everything else there is directories.  Is that the right place to put that
+symlink anyway?
+
+I hadn't thought of the possibility that systemd not being installed is the
+problem, but I guess that's the only logical explanation (unless systemd somehow
+swept that directory and deleted it for some reason).  I guess maybe the mpm
+packages just need Requires(pre): systemd-units
