Yes, for Linux it includes systemd. For kFreeBSD it should be able to

Hi all!
After quite a few months of polishing packages, fixing issues, and
making sure that everything builds where it's supposed to build,
cinnamon is now fully available in testing.
If you already have a desktop environment, you can install the

One of the us mirrors is not working properly. It's been faulty for
at least a week.
The mirror is: 204.152.191.7 (mirrors1.kernel.org)

What about using depmod -a instead, how much would it cost? AFAICS it
only needs to walk trough the dir
Continuing on the goal of optimizing boot time, quite a number of
seconds (specially in old machines) can be saved by not running depmod
at boot time.
Currently it is run by these packages' postinst:
* kernel/linux-image-*
* module-init-tools
* powermgt-base
* zaptel
* lirc
* toshutils
* thinkpad
During some tests I've performed, I've found that making the init
scripts run with dash as default shell instead of bash makes the boot
time a 10% faster (6 seconds in a 60 second boot).
To make this speed up available to everyone, we have 2 main choices:
1. Make /bin/sh point to /bin/dash

As you all know, dummy packages are an ugly hack. They require

an unuseful package in the archive just to be able to replace the old
