Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] package/systemd: set vconsole support option to default y
Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2019 21:35:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1dc021862b1041c3990d6ce25bb331ca@exitstrategytech.com> (raw)
package/systemd:? set vconsole support option to default y
Without this support option enabled, systemd does not allow vterm switching, and could possibly lead to user lockout on tty1.
We prevent these scenarios by enabling the vconsole tool default y, as console login is much more prevalent than not. This allows the option to disable the tool if needed, but as this is a rare usage, it is better to let a user decide they do *not* need it than to expect them to know they *do*.
Any serial connections will not be impacted by absence of this tool, as there are no vconsoles on serial.
