Hi all, In trunk all the init scripts are included into Debian packages with the --no-start option. I agree that it fixes few issues but do we really want users to manually start the daemons (because i guess that at the end they will have to do so)? Just a question i asked to myself comparing De

Hi all, I had a quick look at the Debian packages using trunk, on x86_64. It looks pretty good. The only issues i saw are: - it does not use the Debian kernel, i think this is not compliant with the Debian policies, - one package has a lot of issues: systemimager-initrd-template - few packages h
