It sucks to hear that a project like LFS is forced to drop System V support. I never was a fan of systemd, so this is a bit dissapointing, albeit understandable.

    This doesn’t bode well for Slackware’s next release.
    One approach currently discussed on the forums is to remove KDE from the repos and let the community support it.
    But that would drastically change what Slackware is - It’s supposed to be a fully-featured general purpose distro that you can boot up and immediately get to work, whatever your use case is.

        This post isn’t about the switch to Wayland, it’s about the switch to systemd.
        Gnome hasn’t been included in Slackware for a very long time.
        And KDE on Slackware already runs a Wayland session by default.
