[$] GNOME deepens systemd dependencies

Date:
Mon, 23 Jun 2025 15:06:15 +0000

Description:
Adrian Vovk, a GNOME contributor and member of its release
team , recently announced in a blog post that GNOME would be adding new 
dependencies on systemd , and soon. The idea is to shed
GNOME's homegrown service manager in favor of using systemd, and to
improve GNOME's ability to run concurrent user sessions. However, the
move is also going to throw a spanner in the works for the BSDs and
Linux distributions without systemd when the changes take effect in
the GNOME49 release that is set for September.
