題目: [devuan-dev] bug#503: bug#503: Let's fork iwd for Devuan
If it’s really the case it’s not fair and not profesionnal at all.

For me the fact is the current situation is not suitable at all. debian
and devuan need a way to select init system and apt install related
packages even if the default package is systemd. Something like that.

mypackage
mypackage-sysinit


For the current problem i guess if we do the init file maybe we can
upstream push request it instead of forking it ?

Also i don t know state of devuan's $$ ressources but it will be
necessary to have some kind of testing of all package (pseudo code)

service package start
if $? == 0
ok
else
notok

And also scenario cases to improve qualities because it’s the only way
to keep diversity on long term. (a day i will have time to weekly meeting)
