How much of systemd is included
Posted: Sat May 10, 2025 4:41 pm
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
