Debian switched to dash in Unstable/Testing a in Summer 2009, maybe they have produced some statistics about the effects? They aren't usually doing such intrusive changes without good reason.
Are there any statistics about the effects? Not only faster booting but also the side effects like required chnages on third party scripts and even the side effects on using the (g)libc system standard function call system(3).
Here are the changes that were necessary in Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=debian-release@lists.deb ian.org&tag=goal-dash
A summary of the side effects can be found here: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-devel@lists.debian.org/msg274568.html
Are there any volunteers to drive such an effort for openSUSE? Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
