So I noticed, that packages

galaxy/redshift world/at-spi2-core galaxy/pacman-contrib galaxy/nvme-cli

own usr/lib/systemd which (I guess) shouldn't happen, since [galaxy] and [world] repos shouldn't have systemd support (?; it's my opinion, because systemd support is provided via [universe], which is optional).

I remove packages' /usr/lib/systemd when I remember to. thunar, dolphin, and spectacle are three I maintain that I know I have to remove this directory for.

Yeah sometimes packages slip in some service files in there on us. I'll take a look at some of these.

Maybe users can take advantage of "NoExtract" option in pacman.conf to ignore files in this directory?

I would not set it as default, just optional for those who know what they are doing.
