# Workaround and future It may be of interest to observe that future releases of Ubuntu (after 14.04) will no longer use upstart but systemd. Ref: [Mark Shuttleworth » Blog Archive » Losing graciously](http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1316)
In the strict context of this bug report which aims at having traditional chroot work in an upstart context, this information should be considered a workaround at best. In the broader context of making some software future-proof, systemd seems like the target to study. Systemd provides containers which can be thought of like "chroot done right". Good news is: it appears one can test systemd with existing Ubuntu releases (from 13.04 onward, I haven't tested myself): * [How can I replace upstart with systemd? - Ask Ubuntu](http://askubuntu.com/questions/420917/how-can-i-replace-upstart-with-systemd) * [systemd - Ubuntu Wiki](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/systemd) Thank you for your attention. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430224 Title: init: support chroots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/430224/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
