Hello Richards,
Quite interesting to actually talk to someone who actually has his hands
dirty and can talk about this issue :)
I remember reading a Lennart's post on his blog about a future when
packages will be installing in their own spaces and all of this managed
by systemd. Now my question (may be an innocent one, I'm full aware
of that) is:
Why a core technology piece like the kernel can be patched in place
(and I hope we see this awesome feature implemented in the neigh time)
but on the contrary there is so much trouble when trying to upgrade other
'simpler' (if you allow me) pieces of software?
Damn, I believe that even systemd is designed in a way it can be
hot-upgraded too without the need of rebooting the system...
Thanks for your time.
