Really? from what I read BSD complaints they hate RedHat related stuff like systemd and GNOME code was Linux only for w hile, not sure if this was fixed in GJPME or downstream.
- ofalkaed 4y agoCanonical adopting systemd is what made it a standard, community went from being very divided on systemd to resigned and accepting it almost overnight after Canonical announced they were going systemd. This is a fairly common trend, they have a fair amount of influence although that seems to be waning after their push for snap.
- thecosmicfrog 4y agoCanonical only settled on systemd when Debian decided to adopt it, though.
- slackfan 4y agoThat is nice historical revisionism, considering Canonical was all in on upstart.
- veidr 4y agoNo, the parent you are replying to meant that Canonical only gave up on upstart and accepted defeat (and thus went with systemd) when Debian made that decision.
- thecosmicfrog 4y agoCorrect - that was what I meant. I remember the init system debates all too well.
- simion314 4y agoDude, that is historical true, Upstart was there before systemd , Redhat used upstart too. Then an RH dev created systemd and Arch,Fedora,Debian moved to systemd , Ubuntu followed Debian decision since Ubuntu is based on Debian and they share maintainers/developers.
- slackfan 4y agoUbuntu held out for quite a bit with upstart, but.
