Multiple versions are indeed an issue. I don't know if the systemd fol= ks have=20 a suggestion for that case. But as far as I understand the recommendat= ion is=20 indeed to install unit files to the directory given by pkg-config. The installation directory can of course be changed and you could simpl= y point=20 it elsewhere and then have the user copy the unit file she wants. Regards, R=C3=BCdiger
