Saying "it should" be done by kernel doesn't help, when Linux 3.0 doesn't and that's what we've got. Can you really see many installs having those USB keys? (I can't, I just think, you'll get some users saying openSUSE's slow.). On demand daemon starting is an issue for 12.1, if you do it for CUPS why not something that provides entropy if it's generally not useful to most installs? It's just events, print job submitted, low water mark hit. I have not seen what the objections were to having the daemon started by default, and I pointed out that the changelog misrepresented the discussion in the bug, which was about lack of information in the release notes. Very likely that's the simplest practical solution. Far from "telling that we add another level of complexity", I just pointed out a possible alternative, rather than just blocking ignoring or reporting a problem, the system activates something to ameliorate it when it seems useful. I DO NOT care that would be ineffiecient, it is far more efficient than a call to a sysadmin. I don't understand why you think reacting to such an issue is too complicated, because good sysadmins end up writing scripts to do that kind of maintenance rather often, and there were objections to the non-obvious inclusion in Installer. Overloading the choice of run level 3 rather than 5, seems rather indirect and fragile to me; install time can be very different from real usage so dislike of that alternative is understandable.
