I switched from gentoo to fedora 1 yr ago because contrary to the source based philosophy, recompiling packages would often not be successful and would require manual debugging. I switched back to fedora because it has sane RHEL defaults, SELinux is enforced by default. I just dont really have to fuck with it too much but gentoo taught me how to set my system up from a more in-depth perspective.I just want to know if there is a way to get OpenRC as my default init system and replace systemd from a fresh minimal fedora net install. Maybe there is some compatibility layer that I can use that translates systemd functions to openrc?
>>106779797>recompiling packages would often not be successful and would require manual debuggingBeen using Gentoo for 2 years and I can count on one hand the number of packages that have failed to compile. And those failures turned out to be my fault because I accidentally deleted the -O2 compilation flag from my make.conf file. You probably have a misconfiguration somewhere.>can i run fedora without systemd?Lol, lmao even.
>>106780773Enjoy larping as a system administrator while you wait 10 hours to compile a minor update to your browser with gcc -O2 so you can achieve +1% preformance -5% space savings. Truely you are a god among men.
Seems like a pointless endeavour. If you don't like to compile but hate systemd, why not binary packages on Gentoo or Void Linux?
>>106779797systemd is working fine though, you don't have many reason left not to use it on desktop.
>>106781342Its more of a personal pref for fedora binaries, fedora defaults, upstream flatpaks, but openrc init. Its pretty niche i dont really expect it to be something rhel cares to deliver to me personally.
>>106781212>+1% preformance -5% space savings.and you have +1000 packages on your system. so 1000% more performant system and 5000% less space usage
>>106781461Youre still writing the source code to disk then writing the binary to disk. Youre writing twice the data and you get the honor to deal with circular dependencies because of ebuilds written by neckbeards. Flatpaks are shit tho for space savings absolutely redundant built in dependencies. But disk space is extraordinarily cheaper than time to compile.
