Busybox Deletes Systemd Support

Posted by timothy on from the changed-our-minds dept.

ewhac writes: On 22 October, in a very terse commit message, Busybox removed its support for the controversial 'systemd' system management framework. The commit was made by Denys Vlasenko, and passed unremarked on the Busybox mailing lists. Judging from the diffs, system log integration is the most obvious consequence of the change.

    It's a good thing that Linux is not Unix, then.

    Basically systemd completely wrecks the UNIX way and makes the distros that use it absolutely unmaintainable if you're a sysadmin.

    Was totally with you. I considered your post logical and well thought out. Then I read your last sentence and we're back to the "waa waa someone changed something" line.

    Pity really.
