I think if the FSF actually embarked on making sure their "crapware" (my personal phrase - no offense anyone) function even remotely close to BSD style (that everyone else outside of Linux uses), they would have to do a complete rewrite. Usually, you just install the GNU tools along with the ones the OS provides and hope for the best when trying to compile.

I'm not criticizing Devuan directly, but common standards really aren't the Linux way lately, and it is becoming rather tiresome, at least to me. This is not Devuan's fault, but as a whole, no one involved with Linux seems to care about cross-platform standards anymore.

     You say "crapware"; I've also read "bloatware". Everyone complains 
about GNU, including me, but I don't forget everyone is or should be 
immensely gratefull for the wonderful software they provide to the 
world, free and open. Think of gcc, glibc, emacs, latex...


     Seen from today, GNU is almost as old as Unix and I don't consider 
either of them is more entitled than the other to set the standard. I 
only have personnal preferences :-)
