Indeed, nothing major has changed between my old Debian Jessie with systemd pinned to -1 and the current Devuan Jessie. Just a few packages were upgraded, smoothly. I admit my installation is not what most people would call a "standard desktop" though (basically, Window Maker + emacs + standard ncurses clients + iceape and little more), and I am not using any network daemon, except for ssh and cups, but everything works pretty well. libsystemd0 is still there, due to the (practically useless) rdepend of cups-daemon, which I cannot unistall, but apparently that nuisance shall be removed in the forthcoming Devuan beta. Come on Hendrik, it's time to jump in the hole ;) My2Cents KatolaZ -- [ Enzo Nicosia aka KatolaZ --- GLUG Catania -- Freaknet Medialab ] [ me [at] katolaz.homeunix.net -- http://katolaz.homeunix.net -- ] [ GNU/Linux User:#325780/ICQ UIN: #258332181/GPG key ID 0B5F062F ] [ Fingerprint: 8E59 D6AA 445E FDB4 A153 3D5A 5F20 B3AE 0B5F 062F ] _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
