The systemd project may be larger than a small utility, but it is composed of: * multiple, small utilities that do well knwon and well defined tasks (we package that in systemd-tools), * a core daemon (systemd) which is hardly larger than bash wrt lines of code * udev These things are separate and each one of them does not look complex to me. What complexity do you think it has ? Rémy.
