Why do people always think that a proposal will automatically exclude all others? In your student scenario, you do *not* add them to the shutdown group (or you show some trust into them). In your scenario, you use all those *kit (or their successors) packages. You are what those GNOME/systemd people target their new things at. But neither you nor Svante/me are the *only* use cases. Rather, both coexist. Just as I do not want to tell you to add all your students to the shitdown group, which would be inappropriate, I do not want to be told to use systemd, just to shut down a box. Use the right tool for the job. Again: variatio delectat, and I'm all for freedom of choice here. bye, //mirabilos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
