Well, we have the best tool in the world to work on alternatives and/or derivative distributions, OBS. I have not seen anyone step up and do the work necessary. However, I do have to admit that I am certainly not aware of every project in OBS.
Apparently you haven't tried that. If you did (as I did), you would find how many subtle - and sometimes not so subtle - changes have been done to packages not related to systemd at all which were not needed for systemd but only break non-systemd systems. In some cases, just build a package of "wrong" name gives you a hard error from OBS checks...
Or actually "factory-maintainers" -- a bunch of people apparently who have decided they better maintain "my" project than I do -- accept submissions against "my" packages, which remove non-systemd stuff, which I kept in on purpose.
Which leads to me actually mostly abandoning the vdr project right now.
OT: can I just remove the factory-maintainers from the vdr project? I certainly have not added them, so removing them would most likely be futile...
Factory maintainers team work based on maitainers inactivity. You can avoid them doing any work just by reviewing SR#s or stating there that they need to be redone in comment section. Usually the changes are reviewed if they are >1 week older without any activity. In the review we only care for merging patches that work on openSUSE:Factory and to extend if it works for supported openSUSE which are 12.3+ (so systemd only). The blame for having merged SR#s you didn't want is only for you. We simply don't want people to sit and wait for 1 month + without any activity on their patches. It is severly demotivating. And we still have such as for some areas it is simply not obvious and maintainer does not care... And no you can't remove them from your project :) Cheers Tom
