One point of clarification: systemd does not require changes in systemd-shim or cgmanager. systemd runs just fine with no such changes. Those packages exist for people who for whatever reason don't want to run systemd, and that's not something the systemd folks should be expected to help with (any more than people who don't want to run systemd would be expected to work on systemd). The systemd maintainers already held systemd 204 back in unstable for months waiting for the alternative to become viable. It's not reasonable to expect every systemd upgrade in unstable/testing to wait for an alternative init system to keep up. If it does keep up, great; there's no fundamental reason to *not* want that alternative to work. If it doesn't, oh well. - Josh Triplett -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
