systemd 209
Lennart Poettering has announced the release of systemd 209. In the roughly five months since 208, systemd has seen a lot changes including support for kdbus (albeit with an unstable API for now). Two new tools, systemd-networkd and systemd-socket-proxyd, have been added. Several libraries have been combined into a single libsystemd to reduce code duplication. Lots more changes are listed in the announcement. Unlike earlier releases, it is not yet available for Fedora Rawhide due to an ARM build problem. "This is a massive new release, it includes a lot of new code. You
probably don't want to base your LTS release on this. We hope to return
to a shorter release cycle now to stabilize the new code. Expect a
couple of bugfix releases over the next weeks."
