Pas trop le moral ce soir.
Je crois dans le #libre depuis 27 ans. Et il n'a jamais été aussi nécessaire.
Et maintenant je vois tous ces projets qui s'auto-enshittifient......

9️⃣ Here's the 9th post highlighting key new features of the upcoming v260 release of systemd. #systemd260 #systemd
If you deploy systems and services, then beyond the general lifecycle management that systemd always did you typically also want some form of metrics monitoring/observability. There are various approach to this, but the most popular ones all operate with local agents that pull metrics out of local services, and make them available for centralized collection (prometheus, …).

In the 4th posting of this current series, we introduced the new .mstack/ directory type, for putting together service and container trees from stacks of overlayed directory trees and bind mounts, all in a self-descriptive directory.
In v260 there's also one major user of this new concept: the importctl tool gained a new "pull-oci" verb for downloading OCI containers. What it…

Sometimes it's useful to bind a specific service to a certain network interface – all of it, at once. With v260 there's a new knob for that: BindNetworkInterface= can be configured in service units, and will cause all sockets of the service to be bound to the specified network interface, without a chance to use any other.
This is particularly useful in VRF contexts, …
So if one was to start splitting up #systemd into smaller, more maintainable components and remove some of the dependency nest, where would one start?
#systemd v260~rc3 is out! Just one more RC bro, I swear just one more RC is going to fix it
Insane. This is #systemd's sprawl. Archlinux. On fresh install there's 144 entries instead of 147.
I was looking at whether it has installed its own cron, but I guess systemd-bsod.service is what everyone needs.
Oops, #systemd 260, actuellement en RC et qui vient de débarquer dans #Debian Forky (version test), balance le support des scripts System V par la fenêtre.
J'ai uwsgi qui est concerné.
uwsgi fait tourner https://cherche.shaftinc.fr/
Bug ouvert chez Debian
Enfin fait... Faisait 😬
Queued: Mandatory systemd for age verification.
#systemd v260~rc2 is out!

Unfortunately, with this version we had to remove the backup local access to root shell via sd-machined. This was very handy as we are all getting older and forgetful about our root passwords, but alas there were some minor downsides to it, so it's now gone https://github.com/systemd/systemd/security/advisories/GHSA-6pwp-j5vg-5j6m
I was going to swap out OpenRC for SystemD for my Gentoo install, but Alpine introduced me to OpenRC and I think I'm going to run with it a bit.
think i finally found a feature that #systemd has that i actually need
so apparently #GNOME's wayland session, when run via GDM, does not read the user's .profile to update its environment variables and such -- the X11 session used to do this, but the #wayland one doesn't
on systemd, it is possible to specify user-wide environment variables with files in the ~/.config/environment.d/ directory
and there seems to be no equivalent for that in #AlpineLinux or its #OpenRC init system
#systemd v260~rc1 is out! We are not late on the schedule, we simply took over and reimplemented the meaning of punctuality from the traditional shell-based implementation.
After more than a decade focused on KDE Plasma, KaOS has shared the technical and systemd-related reasons for its big desktop change.

Migration réussie d’une appli #django de #heroku vers #hetzner 💪
Autant je connais les rouages, autant la stack #nginx #systemd #supervisor #python #gunicorn #postgresql me gonfle un peu 🤭 sans parler qu’il a fallu renouveler les certificats (expirés) via #letsencrypt et configurer une nouvelle entrée au niveau dns.
… en soi, rien n’est réellement compliqué (pour peu que l’on s’y intéresse 🙃)… et en même temps : ça fait beaucoup de choses à comprendre et à configurer pour « juste un CRUD de plus ».
Tout ça manque terriblement de déploiement « push buttons » et de stacks simplifiées.
Je devrais peut-être regarder du côté d’#ansible 🤭
Well it took a whole long weekend of troubleshooting and rebuilding, but once again my #homelab is running smoothly. There were a few factors that combined to degrade things to a point where I just needed to examine my whole network and what was running on my machines.
The root turned out to be a network bridge configured with #systemd-networkd not playing nicely with docker being installed to run a big compilation job.
Once #docker screwed with the network config things spiralled from there.
KDE addresses misinformation about systemd requirements, stating Plasma remains usable on non-systemd systems.

Los geht’s – das neue Schulungshalbjahr unserer #Linux Akademie ist gestartet! Den Anfang machen Online-Kurse zu #Proxmox VE. Ein herzliches „Hallo“ geht raus an unsere Teilnehmenden an den Bildschirmen - schön, dass ihr dabei seid! Wir freuen uns auf spannende Schulungstage.
Ihr habt 2026 bei uns übrigens noch je viermal die Chance auf einen Proxmox-Einsteiger oder Fortgeschrittenen-Kurs – oder ihr besucht eine unserer weiteren Schulungen – von #Ansible bis #systemd:
1/2 Aproveitando que estou agitado hoje (e acho que não dormirei tão cedo), me ajudem (se puderem, claro):
Atualmente uso #Debian e considerando migrar para o #Devuan (sem o #systemd). Estou aprendendo a programar (meus horizontes são #Python e #Java (por diversos motivos) e quero usar o mínimo de interface gráfica possível ao longo do tempo. Tenho em vista utilizar o #GNUEmacs e atualmente uso o gerenciador de janelas #i3wm com o #alacritty (de emulador de terminal). #blambers
Here's the second published video of my FOSDEM talks, about VM Integrations in systemd:
https://video.fosdem.org/2026/h2213/G7VMEN-vm_integration_in_systemd.av1.webm
one more to come, stay tuned.
Wollt ihr unter Linux eigene Dienste starten und steuern? Das geht mit Systemd-Services.
Wie Ihr Systemd-Services optimal für euch nutzt, zeigen wir euch in diesem @ct_Magazin Artikel, den ich betreuen durfte.
Let's see where this cuts off on threads...
Using bash, python, and a systemd timer I have a check running every 5 minutes for new mastodon posts. Those posts are converted into an image and reposted to threads with a link back to my mastodon post.
I wanted to set this up for X as well, and its totally doable, but they switched new developer accounts to pay-per-use as of recently. Not ready to pay to post on X.
Sad to know #Linux From Scratch #LFS is dropping #SysVinit support and going #systemd only now
