+1 However, there is a legitimate concern that I'm not likely to personally test more than one, maybe two, of the service files, since I'm probably going to find that I have a personal favorite and end up using that on most or all of my systems. In general, whichever one we pick as the installation default is probably going to get the most testing. This isn't a problem for things like MTAs, which are fairly self-contained; Postfix is quite well-supported in Debian despite having Exim as the default. But for init systems, where the support is spread over a large number of packages, the situation is trickier. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
