        Make that two: file-rc is also blocked in devuan.

        When switching to openrc they ended up replacing sysv-init with file-rc, breaking boot. The obvious solution is of course to block file-rc from the distribution.

          I like systemd but choice is good. More power to them.

                probably the same way most anti-systemd posters work - read another poster's incorrect comments, don't check it it out to see if its true and just repeat it.

                    Thank you very much, Devuan devs. By pulling all the VUAs out of the mainstream community and locking them in a corner, you help to remove one of the main obstacles Linux faces on its way to become a fully-featured, modern OS.
