I know they've attached all these projects to the systemd brand because they thought it would beneficial but it's hard not to wonder if we could avoid all those discussions if the umbrella project was called something different...
- mort96 3mo agoNo, you can just run the systemd init system and not use any other systemd programs. I would probably run systemd-journald just because it's really nice to have a logging system which knows about the system services, but it's not required.
- bonzini 3mo agoYou probably also want to run udev, and logind comes close. Everything other than these four is absolutely optional.
