But this only concerns the booting itself. As consolekit is unmaintained, polkit will soon depend on systemd. The next Gnome version will require systemd - more to come.

I don't run gnome, but kde is just as bad in this case :(

care to elaborate? I have always used KDE. Now I am using it with systemd but AFAIK it does not mandate anything systemd specific. GNOME OTOH forces you to use pulseaudio :P -- Regards Shridhar
