I think the result of this GR would be any bug along the lines of "XYZ won't work with initd system ZYX" would be treated as RC (release critical). Which sounds good, except: * They left it to the last minute before the freeze. * I don't believe it actually is a problem any more. Gnome no longer depends on systemd (there are some bugs that have been ironed out in unstable, and just need to propagate through to testing). If people really want init system XYZ to work, somebody will do the work to do this. Trying to force the maintainer to do something via a GR and RC bugs isn't going to work. So, I don't actually see the point of this GR, and may vote against it. -- Brian May <[email protected]>
