Maybe Luke means dynamic linking > (necessitating dynamic loading) instead? It's already dynamically linked too. If the argument is that it should be opened with dlopen at runtime, I'm quite confident that there are *many* people on debian-devel who have worked with shared libraries and can spell out many reasons why that's a horrible idea. And it serves no practical, useful purpose. (Removing every package whose name contains the string "systemd" is not a practical, useful purpose. It's just silly.) What Luke spent thousands of words advocating for is basically what the systemd upstream has *already done* with libsystemd0. One could even say that it's a primary *purpose* of that library. So, yay, I guess? The world is much better than you had thought and already as good as the compromise position you thought you could get! -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
