So split networkd into stand-alone package, and enable iptables-dev dependency. It's not enabled by default service, is it? Thus should not be installed together with init, given the deps it wants / pulls in. And from the bug reports there is clearly demand for full functionality to be available from networkd. Looks like win-win, minimal install is kept minimal, yet optional component is fully featured. -- Regards, Dimitri. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
