Exherbo recommends installing systemd [1]. Sabayon installs systemd by
default [2]. Funtoo is considering running GNOME >=3.8 in a container so
systemd doesn't "impact" the rest of the system [3] (which by the way looks
like an interesting idea). However, in the same link Daniel Robbins says:
"[...] from my perspective, I think it is simply so people can run GNOME. I
do like GNOME 3.6. I like their new UI. It would be nice to run 3.8. I
don't care about systemd. It is simply a dep of GNOME. That is all."
I see that as being open to the idea of using systemd in the future. It
doesn't say that they'll never support systemd, as others would. Well,
users; for the people that actually write the code, the majority seems to
like systemd, or at least don't have a problem with it.
Anyhow, many in this thread forget that it was the OpenRC maintainer the
one that proposed the change to stop supporting a separate /usr without an
initramfs. If you use OpenRC, and have a separate /usr without an
initramfs, and *anything * breaks in your machine, you get to keep the
pieces. No (official) support for you.
It doesn't matter if you use udev, eudev (which is the same, just
emasculated), nor mdev. OpenRC will start assuming an early available /usr;
that's why its maintainer championed the change. It needs it to actually
compete with systemd. So even Funtoo will need the same requirement, unless
they switch to runit.
As others have said, this is not really related to systemd/udev. It's
OpenRC, the "official" and (still) recommended init system for Gentoo, the
one that is making the change.
And about time, if you ask me.
Regards.
