Re: Options for Salix if Slackware is forced to switch init
Some of us have read this article long ago and it seems me that we are beating a dead horse posting again in this thread. Considering that:
Happy New Year Everybody
(1) PS: I meant Salix
- Whether Slackware will adopt systemd in (one of the) next stable versions(s) is entirely up to Patrick J. Volkerding
- Whether Slint(1) will follow suit is entirely up to gapan
- Nothing like that will probably occur this year anyway

Re: Options for Salix if Slackware is forced to switch init
That's nice. Yet, still here we are....Some of us have read this article long ago
The point being that, if one sees the problem with systemd then there are quite a few things one can (and should!) do about it. Roll your own, pick a different, existing one, and so on. (We did.)
Perhaps providing suggestions to PV or to gapan is also not entirely without merit, especially since they get to pick-and-chose.

Of course! Thanks for the heads-up. But that somehow stands for Slint toolaprjns wrote:Did you mean Salix....DidierSpaier wrote:Whether Slint will follow suit is entirely up to gapan

... and while PV has been an exceptional guide all along, that alone does not make Faith a strategy nor Hope a destination.See this post and especially its last line.

Re: Options for Salix if Slackware is forced to switch init
I voted SysV. This is what Debian used to use and Devuan continues to use. I have been extremely happy with using SysV on my Devuan system. It is a lot quicker than systemd and doesn't have any of the inherent problems of systemd:

Re: Options for Salix if Slackware is forced to switch init
systemd would be a trap that Salix couldn't escape from, since it seems everything becomes dependent on it. So anything but that, I guess.

Re: Options for Salix if Slackware is forced to switch init
Rather disturbingly, I have noted that there is a "Dlackware" Slackware Live Edition that has Gnome3, PAM and systemd on top of Slackware. Talk about the dark side of the force
