Just to clarify, the removal of the Essential status from sysvinit changes nothing--it's pointless and doesn't affect experimentation with systemd or upstart, both of which can be used as a sysvinit replacement right now. It will just make some of the dependencies slightly cleaner, but is only a tiny detail. > There where also discussions about OpenRC, but it needs support for LSB > headers to be considered for Debian. Yes. Or we add support for OpenRC dependencies to insserv and convert all scripts to use the OpenRC runscript format. We might end up doing both. If anyone is interested in exploring OpenRC use, please do get in touch. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
