Right now, I don't think the Ubuntu Server Team expects to support anything other than systemd in releases since 15.04. If you think we should, please take it up on the mailing list. But since Debian supports multiple init systems and we inherit that capability, I have no objection to patches to fix behaviour in the development release, provided that we also have someone step up to maintain any Ubuntu delta for this as required. For fixing server and upstart related bugs in stable releases that ship with systemd, I guess it probably depends on the individual regression risk. I originally thought that this bug affected puppet when running under systemd as is the default. If this is not the case and only affects upstart in a pretty unusual and unsupported (by the server team) system configuration, then though I still welcome patches from users affected, I would expect the Ubuntu Server Team to focus on other bugs instead. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1570472 Title: Set systemd as default service provider To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/puppet/+bug/1570472/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
