I think,
In this discussion about 'goto' we are forgetting one important fact
about it. This is, the fact that 'goto' is simply a jump and a
corresponding lable. This makes 'goto' jumps possible at any point in
code which is absolutely not necessary. Evolving from simple 'goto'
and lable statement

The outcome of this thread was that session management is possible
without policykit, at the expense of few little hacks.
Unfortunately, without policykit, the users are not allowed to
mount removable media like usb memory sticks. Few years ago the
permissions were handled in udev rul

As an mental exercise, look at part II in the above, and make programs
for if/while etc. with labels and goto's.
E.g. a general loop is
loop_init();
loop_start:
loop_pre();
if (condition()) goto loop_start;
else goto loop_end;

Hi,
With a switch statement execution continues immediately after the
switch. My example also involved a chunk of code that followed the
series of if statements that was also skipped by the goto jump. A
switch statement cannot jump a successive number of lines but my
little example can. In fact, I

How difficult is it to repackage samba-libs without libsystemd0?

Rereading my previous email, I think this is a mistake on my part. A
switch's default clause can be used to execute such a number of lines.
The only thing that a switch cannot do is use a non-constant
