FYI, A bunch of GNOME modules now have --enable-systemd configure flags. This will make them use systemd instead of (deprecated ConsoleKit) to track login sessions.
I made a tracker bug on GNOME Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=systemd Modules I noticed (and added to the tracker bug): - NetworkManager - gnome-settings-daemon - gnome-session - gnome-control-center - gnome-packagekit - system-monitor And related to systemd: - gnome-control-center (timedated) This just relies on the daemon to be there; systemd doesn't need to be running (99% sure of this), the daemon is part in the systemd tarball. We do need to ensure Mageia 2 always has timedated. This is used to change the timezone and so on btw. These seem to be compile time checks. Meaning: if --enable-systemd is added to ./configure, the functionality won't work on sysvinit. I am not sure exactly what will break under sysvinit. The bugreports to contain some discussion though. Could a systemd expert look into this and suggest what is best for Mageia 2? -- Regards, Olav
