I agree, just copy it to a local overlay. If a serious bug does arise, |

you then have the choice of trying to persuade someone to backport the fix |

from systemd or switch bootloaders. |

I've no idea how tightly bootctl (as gummibot is now called after its |
12 |
assimilation in the the systemd collective) is bound to systemd. It may |
13 |
well be feasible to create an ebuild that builds bootctl from the systemd |
14 |
sources without the rest of systemd, as is already done with udev. |
