Can you elaborate as to why systemd isn't desired? Especially if udev

Systemd is a pretty big step right? I don't know much about systemd
and have never used it.
I was following discussion with it in LFS dev mailing lists and there
is a Systemd branch, but they are sticking with the more simpler
extracted udev
I was under the impression to install systemd, we'd have to add quite
a few more deps in final-system. If we are to keep a minimal system,
that might be counterproductive.
Yes you would need a few more packages
I've done three full builds with systemd, including desktop packages
such as XFCE,KDE and requires dependencies
Pure 64 build following boot method For CLFS as a bare minimum you will need
attr-2.4.46
libcap-2.22
expat-2.1.0
XML-Parser-2.41
intltool-0.50.2
gperf-3.0.4
dbus-1.6.10
systemd-204
The method, I used was to follow the book all the way through didn't
cross compile any of these packages listed above, used sysvinit and
standalone udev + minimal bootscripts for booting until final system
There are a number of adjustments to be made to configuration files and
some additional switches to configure arguments for packages along the way
Some are simple others took a bit of reading up, both the LFS book and
the Arch Linux wiki and package set up were refered to
On the other hand, if systemd is great and all that, we need more devs
active on the book. Then we'll need to edit cblfs as well for systemd.
Yes more work, cblfs needs a lot of attention!!
I don't know what all work is required, but I wouldn't look forward to
it, right now.
Sincerely,
William Harrington
