Additionally, you can mark the publication holding a general vote (GR, general resolution) of Debian developers on . Three options were proposed for voting:
- Support for a variety of init systems and the ability to boot Debian with init systems other than systemd.
To run services, packages must include init scripts; supplying only systemd unit files without sysv init scripts is unacceptable; - systemd remains preferred, but the possibility of maintaining alternative initialization systems is left. Technologies such as elogind, which allow applications bound to systemd to run in alternative environments, are seen as important. Packages may include init files for alternative systems.
- The main focus is on systemd. Providing support for alternative init systems is not a priority, but maintainers may optionally include init scripts for such systems in packages.
