The facts with systemd is this. RedHat's business model is to sell support for their OS. Only problem is that Linux is pretty stable on it's own. No problems means no support money. That's why they must replace a perfectly good init system that's worked perfectly for multiple decades with somethin

So why there 2.3 version is in beowulf while buster's package is 2.4? FWIU, it seems this package is compiled from Devuan's CI and not merely merged from upstream: https://ci.devuan.org/job/openvpn-binaries/ I have no idea about what kind of problem made that package not having been recompil
