[18:45] <xmj> I've heard through #debian that Upstart's looking into being ported to run with the freebsd kernel (and maybe natively)
[18:45] <xmj> Any news on that front?
[20:01] <xnox> xmj: yes, see my blog posts from me on debian planet (blog.surgut.co.uk) at the moment - only kfreebsd/eglibc is targetted (that is freebsd kernel and GNU eglibc, not the BSD libc)
[20:03] <xmj> xnox: would that work with debian/kfreebsd, then?
[20:03] <xnox> xmj: at the moment waiting for eglibc2.18 to be uploaded into debian, mostly.
[20:03] <xnox> xmj: ah.... yeah that's the target, that's what debian/kfreebsd is.
[20:03] <xmj> gotcha
[20:04] <xmj> Do they plan to move from glibc to eglibc ?
[20:04] <xnox> xmj: they have many years ego.
[20:04] <xmj> ohh, didn't know that

[20:04] <xmj> xnox: what's the showstopper to getting upstart to work with libc, though?
[20:05] <xnox> xmj: but now that glibc upstream is sensible again, i believe the plan is to fold back into glibc.
[20:05] <xnox> xmj: which libc?
[20:05] <xmj> freebsd's
[20:05] <xnox> xmj: no idea, try compiling and see. it has different header includes and different syscall wrappers etc.
[20:06] <xmj> hmm, interesting
