 Differences between upstream and the Fedora package
 ===================================================
 
-* Firebird utilities gbak,gsec,gfix,and nbackup have a symlink in /usr/bin
-  In /usr/bin you have also isql-fb symlinked to Firebird isql.
-  We can't name it isql to avoid conflict with isql from UNIX-ODBC
-  In /usr/bin you have also gstat-fb symlinked to Firebird gstat.
-  We can't name it gstat to avoid conflict with gstat from Ganglia-gmond
+* In /usr/bin you have isql-fb for Firebird isql.
+  We can't name it isql to avoid conflict with isql from UNIX-ODBC.
+  In /usr/bin you have also gstat-fb for Firebird gstat.
+  We can't name it gstat to avoid conflict with gstat from Ganglia-gmond.
+
+* By default, Firebird is set as superserver mode.
+  Please read the Firebird doc if you want to change the mode.
 
 * According to Fedora packaging rules, firebird service is not started 
   automatically. You need to start it, as root : 
-  for SuperServer :  
-    service firebird start
-  for Classic :  
-    chkconfig firebird on
-  If you wanted to have firebird Superserver started at each boot, as root :
-  chkconfig --level 345 firebird on
-
-* Fedora packages do not use, nor contain the pre-supplied sources for
-  libicu. Fedora packages are used instead.
-
-* POSSIBLE INCOMPATIBILITY
-  In incides on text-based columns (CHAR/VARCHAR), Firebird uses ICU to get
-  binary-comparable sequences (collations). These collations may be different
-  in different ICU versions.
-
-  In Firebird 2.1 upstream always uses the bundled ICU library. Firebird packages
-  use the Firebird-packaged libicu*. Unfortunately, this may lead to
-  incompatibilities in the binary index representation (on disk) between
-  databases created by Fedora-packaged Firebird, and upstream.
-
-  This can also lead to incompatibilities when the Firebird packages are
-  re-built using different version of the system-wide ICU library
-
-  One way to fix this is to backup and restore all databases created with ICU
-  version different from the one currently installed on the system. Another is
-  to re-generate all indices that contain a text-based columns.
+    systemctl start firebird.service
+  If you want to have firebird started at each boot, as root :
+    systemctl enable firebird.service
