I've been watching the mailing lists and William Hubbs has been trying to get a set of patches into systemd for several days. He is being ignored by upstream AFAICT. They have seemed quite arrogant about it in the past when they have commented. I don't know how long -182 will stay sufficient. It's possible it could be years. In any case we will need to patch systemd to add back capabilities that they have removed if/when we do trasnsition. My inclination is to use a build script or a Makefile bypassing the autotools completely if we decide to extract udev from systemd. It's faster, more straight forward and we don't really need to worry about supporting the BSDs, AIX, s390, etc. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
