[Cerowrt-devel] ding dong is the debian drop tail queue dead?

[Dave Taht]

I am not in a position to install this today.... (I will try to spin
up a box tuesday)

https://www.debian.org/News/2015/20150426

but as systemd's defaulted to fq_codel, I was wondering if debian 8
retained that default.

 From systemd-side, it needs commit:

   commit e6c253e363dee77ef7e5c5f44c4ca55cded3fd47
   Author: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com>
   Date:   Thu Oct 16 13:49:04 2014 +0200

     sysctl.d: default to fq_codel, fight bufferbloat

That is:

   $ git describe e6c253e363dee77ef7e5c5f44c4ca55cded3fd47
   v216-627-ge6c253e

Based on the version, looks like it takes one more stable release
(219-7 is in experimental):

   https://packages.debian.org/jessie/systemd

...but looking at the packaging rules for that (the 219-7 in
experimental), it seems debian does not use the upstream rules. The
debian 'rules' file contains:

        rm -f debian/install/*/usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-default.conf


An old changelog from v204 (dated Apr 26 last year) has this explanation:

  * Do not install sysctl.d/50-default.conf because the systemd package
    should not change kernel policies, at least until it will become
    the only supported init system.

Okay :/ In that case, Fedora should hit that earlier as far as I can see.
