I'm not sure why you'd also run daemontools in addition to systemd, as systemd also provides most of the daemontools feature set. > Is it pretty easy to tell systemd not to launch specific daemons? systemctl disable foo -t service; or whatever is appropriate. > I will, as usual when I use Debian, start my desktop environment with > startx or xinit.

I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually grew dependencies on libpam-systemd because of the difficulties of figuring out who is actually a local user without using that (or a similar interface). > What other tips would you have for those of us who want to, to the > extent possible, keep systemd as nothing more than the first program > to be booted, and want to reduce as much as possible what other > programs need to know about systemd and what systemd needs to know > about the programs I run? I don't have any tips for this, since this isn't a goal of mine; someone else might, though. -- Don Armstrong http://www.donarmstrong.com Build a fire for a man, an he'll be warm for a day.
