that's interesting: $ ls -l /sbin/init lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 mars 11 11:22 /sbin/init -> /lib/systemd/systemd $ /sbin/init --help init [OPTIONS...] {COMMAND}
Send control commands to the init daemon. $ /lib/systemd/systemd --help systemd [OPTIONS...] Starts up and maintains the system or user services. -> seems help commands changes depending on systemd binary on user's name. @Robie: you can use systemctl --version in the interim term. ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1433633 Title: "init --version" does not work Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: According to init(1), --version is expected to work. But instead I get: $ init --version init: unrecognized option '--version' As we switch from upstart to systemd, I wanted to check which I was running, and this seemed like an obvious way to do it.
