I personally would like a systemd gui. There have been several attempts in the past, but none is maintained.
Its far too convoluted. A systemd gui for... DNS? Boot services? User Services? tmp file management? Everything?
That's the point. That systemd is convoluted, so a gui could help. And yes, for everything. :)
Maybe the system should be made less convoluted.
I mean, do we really need a half dozen network management services, all broken in their own way and none that do everything you need?
All of those are entirely separate components; I have no idea what you're attempting to imply here.
Those are all things systemd manages.... as well as logs, udev, etc etc.
What kind of gui too could you even imagine would sanely present all of that?
I'm missing a lightweight (not like Thunderbird) contacts app, that can work with CardDAV and allow me to see, search and edit my contacts.
What's wrong with gnome-contacts
?
For me gnome apps are not "lightweight" and work fine only all together (Evolution + gnome-contacts + other gnome tools)
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
