I see you want to start a discussion about systemd? I rather not participate. The decision was taken by ctte, suggest to not keep rehashing if you want systemd. It also feels too much like saying what a project should have done, 10+ months too late. > So reverting to a fully functional version of upower for jessie would be > probably best. You cannot have both installed at the same time. Meaning: software which relies/uses new UPower cannot be installed at the same time as software relying on the older one. There was a discussion @ Gentoo regarding this. IMO, seems easier to recompile software not working with new UPower without UPower support, if possible. But that's obviously not my decision, I just want to highlight the extra work a default desktop incurs. I do hope that XFCE as default desktop doesn't result in crippling of more maintained software though :-P -- Regards, Olav -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
