Nice attitude. This bug was one of the "most annoying bugs" in 12.1. Still not fixed in 12.2 and WONTFIX ever?
You probably have seen in the 12.2 release notes that sysvinit is deprecated. In 12.3, systemd might be the only available init system (in other words: sysvinit might get removed - see the discussions on the opensuse-factory mailinglist) I agree that this bug was valid for 12.1 and maybe also for 12.2, but for future versions it will most probably be a WONTFIX.
Your argumentation why it's ok and wanted to switch to systemd again and again is absolutely non-sense.
Assuming the current factory development continues as planned, 12.3 will not contain sysvinit, so the only sane/possible option is to switch to systemd.
Would you also say it's fine to switch from exim to postfix again and again just because postfix is the default MTA since 10 years? Regardless the user has a working exim config but not a postfix one? Why providing exim packages at all?
You are comparing apples with bananas ;-) There's a big difference - the exim packages still exist and are maintained. sysvinit is not AFAIK - at least I didn't see anyone stepping up to maintain it in the future. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
