I am pleased to announce the 4th release of "notsystemd", v234.1.
notsystemd is a project to turn the various components of systemd into independent pieces that can be used no matter which software is used for PID 1; in a similar spirit to eudev or elogind. This release is almost identical to 233.1, but has been updated for systemd 234. This brings the exciting change that Meson is now a supported alternative to the GNU Autotools when building notsystemd. It also brings some changes to how systemd-npawn behaves. ______________________________________________________________________ | Notice: | | - The default behavior of `systemd-nspawn --register=no` has | changed. Non-systemd users will probably wish to start using | `systemd-nspawn --register=no --keep-unit` (and some systemd users | will as well). | | - notsystemd's nspawn likely has issues with resource-control when | using cgroup v2. This potential bug has not yet been fully | investigated. It has likely been present in all versions of | notsystemd. However, this is of slightly more concern now, as | OpenRC gained support for cgroup v2 yesterday. | | I have chosen to go ahead and release v234.1 despite this issue, | since (1) it probably in all previous releases as well, and it | wasn't an issue then, (2) Parabola's systemd users aren't using | cgroup v2 resource-control unless they went out of their way to | set systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=on on the kernel command | line, and (3) OpenRC users aren't using cgroup v2 unless they are | manually installing from OpenRC's git. | At a minimum, the following utilities from notsystemd should be functional on non-systemd systems: systemd-nspawn systemd-machine-id-setup systemd-tmpfiles systemd-sysusers The sources are at https://repo.parabola.nu/other/notsystemd/ Pre-built packages have been released to the [libre] repository for Parabola GNU/Linux-libre. -- Happy hacking, ~ Luke Shumaker _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.parabola.nu/mailman/listinfo/dev
