>From experience... i prefer having two tools available atleast to do
every single job (especially when they exist) because then i have an
easy fallback if one fails. Having upstart installed on rawhide during
the f15 rawhide cycles was quite helpful to work around boot bugs on
the fly without having to debug stuff or ending up with a nonbooting
system (which makes it hard to dig up ml threads with workarounds, or
up or downgrading packages). As long as someone maintains it i see no
reason to exclude upstart completly from the repos.
