That is great! And is exactly what the GR is supposed make sure keeps happening. Debian would simply make a public commitment to keep supporting use of all Debian-packaged software with any init system. Does this also mean that such a GR is not actually a blocker for jessie release? > If you don't like upstreams choices, *you* should write patches. Not GRs > telling other people to do so. We have all kinds of policies about what is fine in a package and what is a Release Critical bug. That is a big part of what makes a distribution. This simply adds - "must be able to work with any init system running at PID 1" to those requirements. -- Best regards, Aigars Mahinovs mailto:aigar...@debian.org #--------------------------------------------------------------# | .''`.
