systemd, a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with SysV and LSB init scripts, that provides aggressive parallelization capabilities and uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services, is now at version 206.

“After introducing all those new concepts in 205 this release fixes a few issues in that new code, and adds pretty much all missing documentation for it,” stated Lennart Poettering on the official mailing list.

systemd has been adopted by a lot of distributions, including Fedora, Frugalware, Mageia, OpenSuSE, Arch Linux, Chakra Linux, Gentoo, and even Debian.

Highlights of systemd 206:

• The documentation has been updated in order to cover the new concepts introduced with the previous 205 version; • Filtering the unit list output by load state, active state and sub state is now supported by systemctl; • "journalctl --force" can now be used to force the regeneration of an FSS key; • Support for TrueCrypt volumes has been added.

A detailed changelog of the new release is available in the mailing list.
