Re: Bug#752075: daemontools-run: Add systemd support

[Gerrit Pape <pape@dbnbgs.smarden.org>]

Hi,

I looked into latest policy, but did not find anything about systemd
support.  I'm surprised that this is now a release critical bug, and the
package marked for removal.  What's the justification?

This package hooks into /etc/inittab, does systemd not automatically
manage services from inittab?  Isn't it systemd having release critical
bug then?

Regards, Gerrit
