let's use this bug to get an entry into release notes. Something like
I'm all for it (they both are not compatible in any sense and pretending that you could use one or the other as a replacement, will cause trouble).
sysvinit deprecated ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Various desktop components depend on services provided by systemd only. So while openSUSE 12.2 still has basic support for booting a system with sysvinit as fallback it's considered deprecated and probably even broken in some regards. If you have any issues with a sysvinit booted system please try systemd before filing bug reports.
Here is my version: <sect3 id="sec.122.sysv"> <!-- bnc#769570 --> <title>sysvinit Deprecated</title> <para> Some desktop components depend on services provided by systemd only. So while openSUSE 12.2 still has basic support for booting a system with sysvinit as fallback, sysvinit nevertheless is considered deprecated and probably even faulty or broken in some regard. If you have any issues with a sysvinit booted system, use systemd before filing bug reports. </para> </sect3> There is still this old entry that we'd probably better remove now: <sect3 id="sec.121.systemd-sysvinit"> <!-- bnc#727092 --> <title>Booting with systemd or sysvinit</title> <para>CHECKIT for 12.2.
