adam, i apologise for not being in a position to reply in-thread: as mentioned previously i tried (via gmane) but the entire discussion is completely missing, and i forgot to ask people in the original post to cc me if they would like an ongoing threaded reply.
i also notice that you removed debian-user, so for those people on that list who (like me) were completely unaware of the fantastic work that you've done, here is a link to the archives containing what you wrote: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2015/02/msg00189.html all i can say is, HOORAY! and thank you for doing properly what i only hinted at was possible. i wish i had known of what you've done, even a few days ago. i would have: (a) not have had to mess up my system (b) would not have written the slashdot report (c) would not have heard from so many people who have put links to my report onto their site (d) not been in a position to further advocate your fantastic work (to them) so... actually.. if you think about it, it's a good thing. if you don't mind i'm going to contact several people who maintain web sites and lists in order to have them add your work to them. which should help answer the question you asked: your work - fantastic as it is - was *impossible to find*. it doesn't even remotely come up on the radar of queries. *nobody knows what you've achieved* and that's something i would like to help correct. now, exactly as you, i and russ point out, the next phase is to do dynamic library loading. i'm absolutely delighted to note that you have a handle on this, already, and i see you make it clear that you've thought it through already. i plan to write directly to the systemd developers, taking at face value the recent announcement that they listen to users. is there anything that you would recommend in particular that i include? well done, and thank you for making my hacks completely irrelevant in under 24 hours. l. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
