A lot of people who casually damage features they'd like to go away (eg, "X won't work anymore unless you're running systemd --- to bad, ain't it? But that's good for 'security' and if you really don't want the sensible defaults, here's what you can do ...") can easily cause a lot of work without needing much talent for that (unless that's supposed to refer to the PR talent necessary to convince the unaffected majority that all is well and - surely never - will they end up being inconvenienced themselves[*]). [*] IMHO, that's remarkably illogical: If XXX is prepared to do YYY to some people, he'll eventually do it to all people given enough time. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
