What's little? This was just a typical useless anti-systemd slur: 12 million lines of code! Wow! (and it carries along a negative judgement without really saying it, so plausibly deniable). Way to stir up mud in the discussion without really contributing anything valuable. For whatever reasons I don't understand. I tend to ignore such things. And if that sounded like a systemd proponent: I still run stretch *without* systemd. I don't like its approach. But I like less the discussion style which has developed around it. We're running in circles, it seems. Cheers -- t
