systemd packages -> image

systemd packages -> image

[Andreas Müller]

Hi,

Imagine a recipe is included into an image by a task and later gets systemd-
native support.
How about forcing the packages in SYSTEMD_PACKAGES packed into images in case 

IMAGE_INIT_MANAGER  = "systemd"

is found in the image definition?

Sure, that sounds like a nice idea. Although, in that case, SysV-init
files should probably also be packaged in separate packages and be
installed in a similar manner.

Why are we going to such an effort to provide both sysvinit and systemd in the 
same distro? Why not make it a distro policy decision? This would save a huge 
amount of work.

So I can start sending patches to add the systemd files to ${PN} in oe-core
recipes now? That's the big hold up: lack of vision from the OE-core folks.

I would think if these additions are conditional upon systemd being in 
DISTRO_FEATURES, I can't see a problem. I think the ideal situation would be 
to have a generic "init" bbclass (or some better name) which does all the work 
for you regardless of whether sysvinit or systemd is used (i.e. it would 
effectively replace update-rc.d.bbclass), and save having to have packaging 
boilerplate in every recipe.

My main point was, yes there are both people who want to stay with sysvinit 
and people who are keen to move to systemd, but I'm not convinced both of 
those need to be catered for within the same distro policy.

This is a community project, if you have ideas or suggestions, just start the 
discussion...

Cheers,
Paul

Why not, it'd be nice to not have to install a bunch of extra packages
just to get the systemd files installed. (OTOH, no big deal, but then we
also could consider splitting out the SysV-init-files...)

And we should also move systemd into oe-core. That's atleast my wish...

What about upstart in this context? An generic "init" bbclass should support this too.
