The systemd components all depend on libsystemd (a systemd project), and the GNU apps all depend on glibc (a GNU project).
A common dependency doesn't make them all "deeply interwoven" in any meaningful way.
- mid-kid 4y agoGNU projects generally don't depend on glibc, this is why gnulib (a compatibility layer) exists. With systemd it's often not just libsystemd that's the dependency, but PID 1 and the rest of the stack.
