    Install and use sysusers.d/tmpfiles.d config files
    
    sysusers.d/tmpfiles.d config files allow a package to use declarative
    configuration instead of manually written maintainer scripts. This also
    allows image-based systems to be created with /usr/ only, and also
    allows for factory resetting a system and recreating /etc/ on boot.
