I am not a systemd user. Like what Bruce did as a great development step, extracting udev. Wish I could learn how to do it myself. Also, like that ĸen is keeping alive the eudev alternative. But I fear it might take over everything in other software (seems to have done it already in gnome), what would oblige everybody else to use it. That is what I do not like: "oblige". Other than that I would, perhaps like systemd, if it could be only considered as an option. But I do like having bootscripts and still believe, since before Linux and Windows had been born, when I was a "programmer", using MSDOS, I believe in "do one thing, but do it well". Even Libreoffice seems to be done with that in mind. So, I try to follow the discussions here and, sometimes, have a look elsewhere, to find out at what point we are now. -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
