Re: If THIS isn't a reason to hate systemd...
No, the reason to hate systemd is that Linux already has a bunch of DNS resolvers that are pretty secure. You can pick your favourite.
But systemd must use its own, special, freshly-written one. Because, systemd. So that decision obliges most Linux distros to host a single, new DNS resolver. That is broken.
Unfortunately, this has been the way with systemd for a while. New way of doing things becomes The One, True, Only Way before the code is actually fully finished and tested. And, if bugs are found, or pre-existing features are removed, it is your fault for trying to do whatever you used to do before.
So, yeah, hate. Just been embarrassed in front of a customer by the COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY change to the way that partitions (especially swap) are mounted. Oh, and did you know, that if your machine ceases to boot because of a systemd config error, you can't fix it in the recovery console?
Bah!
