Hey, Steve! Don't get me wrong here, I'm just expressing the _opinion_ that Systemd compatibility is going to be a greater problem down the road, especially since it seems likely that upstream projects, including the Linux kernel itself (via kdbus) are headed in the direction that they are. I was suggesting that some way of trapping systemd calls and resolving them will have to become a part of the system, even if Devuan does not have systemd itself. Otherwise, a lot of code is going to be have to dropped from the distribution or forked as time goes on. I was suggesting that systembsd's efforts might be of value in this area. Apparently, just saying that is annoying some people, and I apologize for that. Perhaps you are right, and it would be best if I kept my opinions to myself. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
