No I am fully aware that systemd targets Linux and OpenBSD is, well, not Linux. But seriously, what's the status of init in OpenBSD? Last time I used it (around 5.2 for some odd sparc servers that didn't support anything else apart from Solaris) it was still/etc/rc.d scripts, and no respawn if a service crashed etc.
If a Poettering-like asshole was detected anywhere near OpenBSD, they would be shot down like an aircraft flying over the White House without clearance.
GNOME depends on an dbus api, that logind implements, and logind is part of systemd. GNOME does not directly depend on systemd or logind. If you implement the API then GNOME will work just fine.

However, package managers are not able to express dependency on APIs. The only dependencies they can express are on other packages, or libraries. Now, dbus as an independent package has been terminated, so as it stands at present the way package managers express GNOME's true dependency on the DBUS API is to just list
Does it have systemd? (Score:0)

Release notes says it has GNOME 3.16 and since GNOME depends on systemd I guess it must at least have the parts that GNOME depends on?
