I don't really see that happening anytime soon - it will be more |
| 9 |
likely to become an issue for the more complex desktop environments |
| 10 |
(Gnome is already going this way - KDE may very well go this way |
| 11 |
later). Historically they're the first packages to require things |
| 12 |
like HAL, udev, dbus, pulseaudio, etc (and on Gentoo the maintainers |
| 13 |
tend to do a good job of minimizing dependencies). |

I think many will switch to systemd anyway, simply because that is the |
| 16 |
way the wind is blowing and it does have some benefits depending on |
| 17 |
your situation (but so do a number of other configurations). I tend |
| 18 |
to use it by default on new installs, and anytime I find myself |
| 19 |
tweaking my monit rules I keep bumping up migrating entirely to |
| 20 |
systemd a little higher on my to-do list. |
