Systemd has been in use for a little over 4 years. There may be some issues with distro specific implementations but that should be flushed out in the normal debian testing which had been going on with systemd for over a year?
Don't quote me on this, but I recall reading from official channels that the last Debian version without mandatory systemd is going to see its support period indefinitely extended for a long time. Good luck! :)
precisely. and every six month, Id take a peek to see if RedHat employee or Debian maintainer fixed it.
You cannot operate without systemd in Debian 11+. It’s now a REQUIRED “feature” and a veritable albatross around Debian’s neck for those serious server needs.
I'm typing on a machine that's started life as Debian Etch, and has moved from a desktop, to a laptop and back, gotten cloned and is now three machines. It still doesn't use systemd.
That concept of "obsolete as a Debian package" does not really exist, so you are asserting something meaningless. And you brought up the timing of systemd yourself, only to then find that your point was wrong.
You have a lot to learn about the rather sad history of runit and daemontools in Debian, as well as about the ways that Debian people decide what is packaged. This is only some of it.
Debian switched to systemd about 12 years ago, so at least that long.
