I conceptually dislike the user experience of switching init systems because the user upgraded some random package that, from their perspective, doesn't appear related to the init system. I feel like switching init systems should be a more intentional action than that. There is a variety of local customization that is init-system-specific, and I'm dubious that we're going to be able to catch and warn about all of it.
I've not made up my mind about the merits of switching init systems from sysvinit to systemd during a dist-upgrade, but if we do that, I think we should do it via some more deliberate and obvious method than pulling systemd-sysv in via the dependency tree of some random package. The partial upgrade UX for that is really bad, IMO. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
