Ubuntu Buzz has a nice review of Devuan: "Intro to Devuan GNU+Linux, A Great Operating System without Systemd"
http://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2019/05/intro-to-devuan-gnulinux-great-operating-system-without-systemd.html It seems like a decent, positive review and covers the default in the desktop setup. It may have missed a key point about all the init systems or service managers [1] one can thus choose from: in addition to the default, sysvinit, there would also be OpenRC, DaemonTools, runit, monit, and maybe some others I missed, to choose from. On our side of things I notice that the repository does not seem to have any way of identifying those tools as a group. Perhaps they could all be labeled "init system" or "service manager" to make them easier to spot. Also, s6, launchd, and Upstart are not in the repository, the last one perhaps for obvious reasons. /Lars [1] systemd, furthermore, is neither an init system nor a service manager. It should not be mistaken for one, even though it might contain such parts. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
