    First, most modern Linux systems come without an inetd or xinetd, because they have no services which aren't supplied by long-running daemons.

    Please name a modern Linux system that comes without [x]inetd.

    Second, inetd won't listen on things it doesn't need to listen on, let alone xinetd.

    Neither will systemd. As I said above on my system with no xxx.socket units systemd is not listening on any socket.

    (x)inetd does not control what it attaches, the user does and via plain-text files that are in easy to find standard locations.

    would be easy to replicate and should be reported as a major bug

    The devs don't care. These issues have been reported.

    No they haven't. There is no bug report for any of these ficticious problems.

    Like the binary log corruption bug. After over 1 year of sitting, the bug got closed with a "working as intended" and dev border-lining lambasting the submitter. I can understand that a file can get corrupted because of faulty hardware or an FS bug, whatever. What I don't understand is how someone designs something as critical as a log to be non-atomic and easily get corrupted from an unexpected shutdown because it's designed that way.
     

    What bug is that exactly? The bug where if the journal is closed incorrectly a new one will be opened to avoid losing messages?

    systemd has bugs and implementation decisions that some people don't like, but, wierdly, there is a strange subculture of trolls who like to complain about systemd "throwing away output and exit statuses", behaviour which, if true, would be easy to replicate and should be reported as a major bug.

    But no non-AC has ever been able to replicate the problem, and no bug report about this behaviour has ever been made.

  17. Re:Choose init during installation? on Debian 8 Jessie Released · · Score: 2

    Just did an install in a vm. No. There is no option to choose an init system. systemd is default. If you want to use sysvinit, you have to do it via a pre-install script which basically means, netinstall.

    Why just netinstall? The instructions I've seen on the web say: https://wiki.debian.org/systemd#Installing_without_systemd

    If not using a preseed file, this can be added to the boot arguments instead by hitting TAB at the boot menu on the desired entry and appending the above preseed line at the end of the boot command.

    That doesn't work?
