GNOME, KDE, and Cinnamon are now off the menu

Devuan Linux has released its second release candidate.

Devuan was created by self-described “Veteran Unix admins” who find Debian’s adoption of systemd abhorrent, because they want complete control over the packages that load when Linux boots. “Devuan decided to fork not only the base distribution, but also its governance,” the group writes, “because Debian has made it difficult to avoid systemd as init, entangling the system with unnecessary dependencies.”

A 1.0.0 release candidate emerged just under a fortnight ago and today the developers announced Devuan Jessie 1.0.0 RC2.
