If the sky actually starts falling there are things we can do about |
| 13 |
it. Until then, running around yelling about it isn't terribly |
| 14 |
productive. There is this great fear about what udev MIGHT do. Well, |
| 15 |
if they do it then lots of of people will fork it if systemd isn't |
| 16 |
universally embraced as the ultimate init replacement. |

However, right now everybody is worried about a future that may or may |
| 19 |
not happen, or which may or may not be welcomed with open arms by the |
| 20 |
time it does. |

In the meantime I imagine most Gentoo packages will at least ship |
| 23 |
openrc init scripts, if they bother to ship init scripts at all. |
| 24 |
There isn't any requirement that packages have them, afaik, so if |
| 25 |
somebody ships a systemd unit but not an openrc script let's be |
| 26 |
careful about pulling out the pitchforks. :) |
