How much of systemd is included

#1 Post by advice1010 »

MX 23.5 XFCE

I apologize if this has been asked about, in researching it seems that most topics I have seen regarding systemd are strictly about its roll as an init system.

MX functions well for me as is, I do not really plan on changing anything, but I was just curious about the following question (also need to test something with it).
MX comes with Systemd installed, but it is off by default.
Systemd is said to be a whole suite of applications.
I was wondering, does MX come with the entire suite installed, or is it just init system part itself?
For example Systemd I think is said to come with an application/utility called "coredump" which I do not think is installed, so I imagine (if coredump really is part of systemd) that not the full systemd is installed?

Thank You

There are a few pieces missing. Search in synaptic for systemd- and you’ll see what isn’t there. The core stuff is all present.

FYI: mx "test" repo is not the same thing as debian testing repo.
