That's of course your prerogative. And, as I said before: "Linux
strives to be much more than Unix, and that means do things
differently." If you want to do things the same way that it was done
in the last 20 years, maybe Linux is not the best of choices.
I read it before, but to be much more then Unix, Linux should be doing things
better. Being different is what led to MS Windows'
But that's the thing: we (you and me) don't see the situation the same
way. To me, the proposed changes are for the better.
You are one of very few that feel this way.
I myself think the new technologies are worth to change the way we did
things before. But that's just me.
The new technologies have great merit. But, the implementation of it isn't
thought through.
In my humble opinion, what you just said is a little pedantic. You can
disagree with the proposed changes, you can argue why you think
another approach could be better. But just saying "the implementation
of it isn't thought through", is a little insulting to the devs. I
think they though about the implementation a lot.
The dev only thought about himself and the distro he uses. He
apparently didn't consider how what he is doing is going to affect
others or he would have done something better. People have already
explained what should be done so there is a better way to do this
without breaking things.
And maybe I shouldn't even mention it, but I don't use OpenRC. I use
systemd. And it works great on Gentoo.
Well. Linux only. If I wanted a monoculture, I would use MS-Windows or
OSX.
Relax man. I mention what I use: I'm not forcing you (or anybody else)
to use it. But I repeat (because I said it before) that I care about
Linux, and Linux only.
If you care about Linux, why do you allow it to be broken in such a
fundamental way?
Again, to me is not "breaking it". To me is "improving it".
Regards.
It is breaking it. Why you can't see that is beyond me. It has already
been said what is supposed to be required for booting and /usr and
possibly /var is not on the list.
