Followup-For: Bug #976960 Package: systemd Version: 247.2-5 I think that systemd-homed should be packaged from Debian just for the simple reason of giving users choice.
> I still fail to see the use-case for homed, tbh and the current > implementation still requires quite a few hacks (see the fosdem 2020 > talk of Lennart and the problems e.g. with SSH keys). For example I have a persistent live system installed on a USB stick that I share with some friends. Full disk encryption would be hard to implement and not that useful, and it would be better to encrypt on a per-user basis. SSH is not an issue in this case, since a USB stick does not need to be accessed remotely. I know that this is not the most common use case, but giving the user choice and not imposing anything controversial by default is a better approach, in my opinion.
