I've just found that the systemd package includes 369 files (381 already, while writing this message). I'm shocked. openSUSE applied 300+ patches??? Is systemd good and stable for openSUSE? It seems, NO.
Does the number of patches in a package relate to how "good and stable" it is for a distro?
I think so. If a package is programmed well for any distro, why do we need to apply 300+ patches to make it work?
Have you looked at the kernel package?
I believe, the kernel package is well maintained.
What you should be looking at is how many of those patches are not upstream already (hint, most are), so how is this relevant?
I see, every systemd commit to Factory is ~ +10 patches. What's the hell systemd is good for openSUSE? Looking at Fedora? No Fedora way, please. We are openSUSE.
What does that mean? Are we not all both good solid community based Linux distributions?
I see, the patches are not upstreamed. So, I understand that we aren't happy in the current state (who are happy?). I mean, Fedora is very experimental for end-users. For example: https://plus.google.com/u/0/+AlanCoxLinux/posts/aCiB7kTLXTh -- WBR Kyrill
