but over on the CentOS list I'm on, migrating from init system to systemd isn't for the faint of heart as I understand it.
There's more of a culture of upgrade rather than reinstall in Debian than in CentOS and family, in general. The systemd upgrade was handled very well and was seamless for most people; however, someone upgrading from such a long release ago is not something that will have been thoroughly tested and it's quite possible that an old init script that was modified (and therefore won't be replaced by package upgrades) could come along for the ride and cause problems. -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Jonathan Dowland ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://jmtd.net ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ Please do not CC me, I am subscribed to the list.
