I'm not sure that nosh should claim to support systemd units if it
doesn't either support tmpfiles.d, or depend on a standalone
implementation of the tmpfiles.d "protocol" (that is guaranteed to be
run before systemd units with DefaultDependencies=yes). The tmpfiles.d
mechanism is rather simple, and the ability to assume that tmpfiles.d
entries are supported is one of the factors that contributes to systemd
units being simple and declarative.
