I suppose there are some people like yourself who will always feel that way, and that is quite frankly - "totally awesome". All that I ever try to say that I think there should be room for both sorts to make Devuan a home. Yes, I think Devuan should have systemd as an option, but only as an option - never part of the base system. > > Not to push a button, but I think Funtoo had the right mindset about > systemd 'No way or chance in Hell'. I'm sorry Jim, but I see Funtoo as really a bad example of the situation. Funtoo is source based, and Devuan is not. They are both Linux but it is two very different worlds of users, like apples and oranges. It's a LOT easier to excise systemd when you are not expected to provide a binary. The minute you are expected to provide an official binary and have major features removed, users start to complain that your version is less than everyone else. Usually, the only ones who use source versions are power users and programmers who understand and accept the trade-offs in compiling your own OS. Have a great day! =) T.J. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
