An excellent example of a failure to communicate.
Linus said that the fact that systemd parses the "debug" parameter is not a bug:

But sadly that didn't stop various Linux developers from bullying the systemd developers in that bug report instead of trying to find some common ground.
The actual bugs (assertion failure creating debug output in systemd, and inadequate buffering in Linux's /dev/kmsg) could have been fixed much faster without the pointless flame fest.
- crznp 11y agoYour link supports the assertion that systemd doesn't play well with the community -- Linus goes on to say: It does become a problem when you have a system service developer [Kay] who thinks the universe revolves around him, and nobody else matters, and people sending him bug-reports are annoyances that should be ignored rather than acknowledged and fixed. At that point, it's a problem.
