Debian Forked Over Systemd

jaromil writes: The so called "Veteran Unix Admin" collective has announced that the fork of Debian will proceed as a result of the recent systemd controversy. The reasons put forward are not just technical; included is a letter of endorsement by Debian Developer Roger Leigh mentioning that "people rely on Debian for their jobs and businesses, their research and their hobbies. It's not a playground for such radical experimentation." The fork is called "Devuan," pronounced "DevOne." The official website has more information.

    Doesn't matter if *EVERYTHING* depends on systemd or libsystemd.

    Oh, go on, big boy.

    What packages depend on systemd.

    (I leave aside your paranoid fear of libsystemd).
