Thanks a lot for this Does anyone know if there's any guidelines for installing Arch with dinit and blacklisting systemd?
Good call @mobin2008, gonna try to upload a new version soon
Hi.
@Relwi Why dont use shutdown-prefix?
I think thats resolve conflict with systemd-sysvcompat.
For more info check BUILD file in dinit project root. (https://github.com/davmac314/dinit/blob/e3b1c949f3afb4e610d64df0afc04a92cc9a7c23/BUILD#L69)
That means that it should not be on AUR then.
@micwoj92 right, it should be conflicted with the systemd-sysvcompat, because it's a init aiming to replace part of the systemd's functions. Arch Linux is systems-based Linux distribution, therefore, if you install this package, your system should be definitely a non-standard Arch Linux.
This conflicting with "systemd-sysvcompat" is not right, because then you are using system without essential package (systemd-sysvcompat is a dependency of base package, which de facto defines standard Arch install).
see your email, I modify this PKGBUILD
There are some conflicts with some files, like /sbin/shutdown, /sbin/reboot, etc... but now this packages are not installed, only the essentials
Why does this package conflict with filesystem and systemd-sysvcompat?
