Perhaps, but no code has been written yet, so this decision isn't set in stone. This is the perfect time to make sure we don't trap ourselves. And I also forgot all about Yocto, which switched to DNF back in Yocto 2.3. They do not use systemd by default in a lot of cases, and having DNF work there without systemd is valuable because of all the configurations they offer that systemd does not support. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
