For those haven't read the article, "system requirements" here means the minimum version of various system libraries, like openssl. It doesn't mean "system requirements" like in a video game -- you don't need to upgrade your PC to use the new systemd version.

So it's more like "minimum required dependency versions"?

Thank you for saying this before people started crying, “Linux is getting encrapified!” without understanding what the article was actually about.
