RSLinux is a Linux distribution, but not necessarily so, it's a way of doing
things more. You do not need to take a full commitment using it as a
distribution, there're almost always packages that you care about more and
want to follow closely, while other people haven't packaged it for you,
B<rs> is a perfect choice for this, you could use B<rs> to properly manage
packages somewhere inside your home directory while still using your
favorite distribution.
Till this day, I still haven't tried systemd once, I don't know one single
objective reason why I don't use it, but it's true enough that it's the
very first motivation that got all these things started. I guess that's just
how the world is, few things are objective while basically everything is
subjective. Nevertheless, the goal of B<rs> is to avoid all these subjective
feelings and views on how a distribution should be made, which init system
should be used, what configure switches, compiling flags should be passed,
whether stable version should be preferred over bleeding edge version or the
other way around, how a filesystem hierarchy should be laid out. Whatever
you feel is right, you just go for it, and what B<rs> does is to make this
process easier. Since the packaging by C<diff> method is general, it works
with every single package with no exception, you don't need any tweak for
an individual package, thus most packages need zero configuration, and all
