It will, the issues that came up now are getting fixed. Seems not enough people tested it before the release in earnest ;-(
When you make a significant change, such as this, you'd better do a *LOT* of testing before inflicting it on innocent users.
Yes, you as the community have to test more and better. It's a shame how bad you performed as part of the openSUSE 12.1 release process. ;)
On the other hand this shows that not enough users were "pulling on the systemd end" (to use coolo's phrase). But we've got it nevertheless.
See my other mail, the majority doesn't care till a release is available. Yes, there had not been enough people at the other end. And at the end I'm happy about this. Even if it had also caused some pain to myself. Fortunately or unfortunately. Here at openSUSE it is as it is with most Open Source Software projects. Those doing the work are deciding how things are going forward.
IMO there is nothing wrong with not testing a thing (systemd) which I'm not interested in. But if I will be "forced" to use that thing then I expect that the ones who are forcing me have seen enough tests.
I'm sure Frederic and Coolo tested this quite well on their own development systems. I've tested it too on my workstation. At the end based on this I guess we had 2 working to one maybe failing systems out of three. Not an optimal result but enough to release it. ;) Thanks.
