Oh, that's utter, unffettered BS. That feature was there from the beginning. v230 changed it from defaulting off to defaulting on, and that was documented in the release notes. "disabling" that change was no more than a matter of changing one line in one config file. Meanwhile, the folks (eg Debian) who compiled-out that feature as a response (instead of changing the default back to off) are the ones responsible from introducing a functional regression, as it meant that admins who *wanted* that functionality found it no longer working. And incidently, the only actual *users* affected by this had all explcitly opted in to use bleeding-edge Linux distributions, such as Fedora Rawhide and Debian Unstable. These bleeding-edge distros routinely have far more serious "regressions" than that. That whole kerfuffle was a whole lot of sound and fury made over a development process working exactly as it was supposed to, and the distribution model once again showed its value. > Do not get me *started* on the "systemd knows better than you do > or than syslinux how many active connections MySQL should support, > we'll just reset that behind your back" that I encountered recently. This sounds like you have a beef with the folks who wrote the mysql systemd unit file(s) and/or its packagers, not systemd itself. Especially as MySQL isn't distributed by Fedora nor does a unit file for MySQL come with the upstream (or Fedora) systemd releases. - Solomon -- Solomon Peachy pizza at shaftnet dot org Coconut Creek, FL ^^ (email/xmpp) ^^ Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur.
