You are both framing the discussion through a fallacy: that the only choice we have is either to drop kfreebsd or to keep insserv forever. There is no point in doing that. The only thing you are achieving is throwing people against one another, without anything happening at the technical level. Having concluded from this thread that 1) kfreebsd is important to Debian and 2) systemd is important for Debian, the question cannot be which one we choose between the two, but HOW we achieve both with the least pain possible. Several people have already explained that it should be possible to write a script, working for most packages, to generate old-style init scripts from systemd service files, allowing for a compatibility wrapper on top of insserv for kfreebsd (until systemd is ported or a compatible init is written for it). -- .''`.
