I don't make much use of audacity, and have not tested extensively. Starting
from an xterm on my i686, fully patched, system, I see the error, but the
program runs and appears to function normally. I see a lot of other errors in
the xterm - but they don't appear to be wxgtk related, and they may

I have found them genuinely helpful in gaining
perspective on the systemd issue. But please, I beg you, don't take us into
quantum mechanics, the Standard Model and all its ramifications. My nerves won't
stand contemplating how systemd interacts with the Everett Interpretation :)

irrelevant little desktop brings opportunities and problems which may interest
those people more. Times change, but one is allowed to regret some of the
consequences.

ther posters (especially the
internal debate between Red Hat devs). I understand that there are advantages,
but I am left with the lingering impression that systemd is part of a larger
project, - as discussed by Fons Adriaensen in this thread. It bothers me.

riticism of the devs - it is
their distro and they are entitled to do what they choose with it. But it does
make me sad.
Geoff
the direction they are taking might lead the
person concerned reluctantly to use something else instead. How they respond
to such opinions is, of course, entirely a matter for them.

ents. I do,
however, find this contribution the thread to which you refer very saddening.
It is not the way I interpret the vast majority of contributions here.

Perhaps we should all just shut up and do as we are told.

it package which Arch uses in preference to cdrtools. You would just
end up with no burning software at all.
You would need to uninstall cdrkit and replace it with cdrtools from AUR.

I hope this does not count as noise on this list, but can anybody confirm /
deny that the lilo issue which I read about here has been resolved in the
kernel version now available for download?

Actually the last thread I posted to was one where you gave

Sorry to post a test message, but I am an infrequent poster

the list admins about it a while ago but got no response, so
I have unsubscribed / resubscribed.

But why? A public dev list is a valuable opportunity for us
all to see how the devs are thinking, but I would never
dream of posting to it. The devs would probably disregard
anything I had to say as noise, - and quite right too. Why
should not people like me be able to discuss system issues
here?

eventually arrived here. "LFS+pacman" is a good
rough summary of what I was looking for. It takes all
sorts of people to make a world - and to make a distro
user-base. ;-)

oment, but surely every
user/developer of open source projects understands how to
make allowance for that.

I think you should call it "Poisson Linux".

hat dissenters are howling at the moon. I do not
understand this to be the case here. So far as I can tell,
a debate is taking place to which users can contribute (no
doubt minimally), by expressing their views. Isn't that
what a general mailing list on an open source project is
for? Isn't that better than walking (forking) away?
Geoff
the devs
don't have to read a line of it if they don't want. I have
not seen any "childish" comments here, on either side of a
civilised debate.

I am sure that nobody wants to demonise *any* of the
hard-working devs. On the other hand, there is no point in
people hiding the strength of their opinions on such an
important point of principle. We should hate the sin, not
the sinner.
Geoff
itched to Arch last September, from Slackware,
precisely because of what I had learned about Arch "as it
was". I am not a fanatical purist, or even a computer
science person. I am just a reasonably well-informed
ordinary user who hates to be babied. I can only say that I
*very* much hope that and your allies you win the battle
