There are no obvious usecases where it makes sense, and OE seems to be adding security vulnerabilities in the musl build that are not in the glibc build (e.g. -Dsecure_getenv=getenv) so users should better not use it in any case. > If we remain cognizant of the fact that upstream might have wider usecases > we will generally be better off cumulatively Upstream ships a copy of systemd code for use as library. This already implies that trying to support it for musl will be a long-term pain of not upstreamable patches for OE contributors. cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
