sysvinit will do just fine until other init-systems can be developed and installed from the repos.

Yes.  Syvinit still works, but it is after all 20 years old. It's been
patched and bolted onto and jury-rigged to get it to do things that
weren't even around (or dreamt of) at its inception.  It's long past
due for a contemporary replacement.  Whatever that may be.

You sound like my X-wife.

So, what would you all propose?  For a server?  Or for a user desktop?
Or something that fulfills both scenarios?  And why?

Just wondering.

See above and unless you are a tester or developer you may want to roll-back to Squeeze.
