What is it exactly that is being deprecated here? systemd-sysv-generator? If the unit generator interface is stable, what's to stop downstream distributions from keeping using it regardless?
- op00to 3y agoI think it’s being able to have stuff in /etc/init.d that show up as services in SystemD.
- bravetraveler 3y agoThat's my read/thought too. The generator is lost, and distributions will probably be carrying an analogue forward -- for benefit of third party relics. I don't believe it makes much more assumption than... $script {start,stop,restart} as the Exec lines in the unit The hairy part is how package scriptlets and so on that assume SysV/want old utilities -- eg: chkconfig, service. systemd captured these, and that may go away too
