I'm very dubious about this being release-critical. > This package hooks into /etc/inittab, does systemd not automatically > manage services from inittab? Correct, systemd doesn't use inittab. > Isn't it systemd having release critical bug then? I don't think it's likely that systemd will support inittab. The semantics of inittab are quite a bit inferior to what's available with very little additional work using the native configuration format, and the regular inittab jobs are provided by regularly-configured services. Yes, that is a disruptive change for people who were using inittab to run other things. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
