]] (Marco d'Itri) | Removing the Essential flag from sysvinit would allow interested admins | to install upstart on their systems if they want to benefit from its | features. I am not sure how much useful it would be to also switch to | upstart by default in this scenario, I welcome other opinions.
I just filed an ITP on systemd and am planning on making it installable alongside with sysvinit, switchable with init=/sbin/systemd when booting. Eventually, I guess either using alternatives for /sbin/init or dpkg-divert-ing it away from sysvinit might be the way to go. Either way, whether sysvinit is Essential or not is a bit irrelevant to whether people can experiment with other init systems. -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
