systemd 225 is a small release that adds a replacement for the ‘su’ command in the form of a ‘shell’ verb for the machinectl command (‘machinectl shell’), which has been engineered to open a fresh shell session on the target system as a new systemd unit. Additionally, systemd 225 introduces support for saving private-zone Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) options.
