It seems to me that the 'schism' is a figment of the imagination, as all major GNU/Linux distributions are actively porting, using, and integrating systemd. So, it's not so much a schism as a branch of non-conformists. While there's nothing wrong with being a non-conformist, in regards to most of the complaints regarding systemd -- the argument does not appear to be about technical superiority, nor performance, nor FOSS, nor substantial in any way except in vaguely philosophical terms. Any even this philosophical argument breaks down into an extraordinary hard line narrow view of what it means to run a *nix system. So, if Mr's and Ms's no-systemd no-way no-how wish to run something else, so be it... I've got no problem with that... However, systemd is what all mainstream GNU/Linux distros will be running for the forseeable future - whether any one user likes it or not... Perhaps there are GNU/Linux users who have not enjoyed using sysvinit - and are welcoming the change... Isn't there the precise reverse argument that these users were 'forced' into using sysvinit and are now being 'freed' from its archaic, overly complex, and necessarily redundant bash scripting? --Andrew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
