There seems to be just one systemd service missing: prefdm.service Can this one be installed from a different package than mageia-prime?
I think this service was removed during Mageia 7 development, no package provides it anymore. mageia-prime needs to be ported not to depend on it, but use its newer alternative (whose name I forgot).
Summary: mageia-prime option '-z' does not work => mageia-prime option '-z' does not work due to obsoleted prefdm.service
