As this is used in RPM, it means no getty gets installed on systemd new install:

{pts/0}% sudo systemctl enable getty at .service
Unit name getty at .service is not a valid unit name.
Cannot install unit getty at .service: Invalid argument

This is likely result of this commit:

    systemctl: require correctly formed unit names when enabling units


Was it intentional?
