For those interested, the Systemd release that’s planned to include the controversial ‘birthDate’ field to user records, complying with age-verification laws, is v261 (see ‘milestone’ in the pull request). This release seems to be planned for May.
The current release, from some hours ago, is v260.1. I see that Ubuntu Noble (24.04) just updated to v255.
How does that address the point I was making?
Your point was around age verification which I am saying systemd’s update doesn’t do such thing
It sets it up to be used if decided to be used, doesn’t it?
Its like saying "look I have a pack of cigarettes on the table but I’m not going to smoke them, I just like that the option is there - but not because I would ever use it though
And then next week adding a lighter to the table.
No big deal, I haven’t smoked!
