I am sure there was a reason that the sysvinit version of pidof was
required over the busybox, did you test that the busybox version works
correctly in both systemd and sysvinit usages?
It maybe that the busybox version now work correctly.
Also as Paul pointed out, this is an RDEPENDS on a single package not
all the sysvinit packages.
Sau!
I have tested that pidof from busybox works fine for both systemd and
sysvinit and also avahi-daemon works fine with this.
Also sysvinit is rdepending on 'sysvinit-pidof' and for sysvinit systems
pidof will always come from inside it. It is only systemd enabled
systems which will get pidof from busybox and it seems to be working fine.
I have tried to track it that why this rdepend was added for avahi
daemon. It was added back in May 2007 but commit
(1641c2bd2c71bb08de7057b052ae74c00eedb330) message doesn't have any more
detail. I am sure that pidof from busybox is much more stable now.
This is definitely installing only 'sysvinit-pidof' but I was of the
opinion that if we can avoid all of sysvinit for systemd only build,
given that it is not impacting any of the functionality, then it will be
nice. IMHO, we should try to prevent as many unnecessary bits from
build/image as possible.
