If I do it via an override file, is that a derived work of the GPL?
no it is not - it's just a config file using as subset of options
if that would be the case you couldn't shop any systemd-unit with your
application
My wider point here is that maybe the GPL isn't the right/most
convenient licence header to put on settings files. ;)
maybe, but no issue since you don't need to touch them
So, does that mean that if it's done by whole-sale replacement, shipping
the full file with modifications, that such a file can not be shipped
with a GPL-incompatible application?
I'm not trying to re-engineer anything (imagine I do not have that
power). I'm trying to determine whether something is permitted or not.
