@karl Linux is 34 years, glibc is 37 years. In my world 14 years is a baby.

@gigantos I fail to see how that makes an argument for systemd being debt-free!

@karl I am just disappointed, that's all. And refuse to believe there were no alternatives to tempfiles.d, such as an additional directory.

@karl some context, if you didn't already read it. The tone of the developers feels condescending to me, and that automatically makes my alarm go off.

@gigantos I read the thread, and I agree with you that Luca's tone is (way) out of line.

The other people in the discussion (including Lennart Pottering, who is, if you didn't know, the creator of systemd) are respectful and contribute positively to the discussion.

@gigantos @karl there used to be opentmpfiles but a critical vulnerability that couldn't be fixed has been discovered in it

@gigantos @karl systemd being 40% as old as Linux is actually older than I would have guessed
