Indeed. It's certainly of assistance to me as a Debian user to know what the potential issues are with systemd as packaged/provided by Debian, and what my alternatives are (whether adjusted systemd configuration, or alternative init system) and how they might be achieved within a Debian context. Details of how to do it outside Debian are off-topic. Talk of forking does seem a bit premature though. Even post-jessie I'd hope that it often suffices to just build some alternative binary .debs from the Debian source packages but compiled with different options, so they may depend on less; I'm sure somebody could offer hosting for such a supplementary repository. I'd also hope that how to use Debian's source packages and toolchain to create differently compiled packages to be installed into a Debian system is pretty much on-topic too though! -- Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
