I'd want a good reason to do so, as I can't imagine it being reversed easily - I'd need to keep a backup of /bin, /usr and so on which I could restore if necessary, then run emerge -e @world and save those directories again. Not worth the candle. There being no foreseeable prospect of the systemd bandwagon picking me up on its way by, I think I'll stick to what I know*. * For some vague approximation to 'know'. :) -- Regards, Peter.
