Hello,
We (the place where I work) have some customers that run arch as their primary os and I would like to create a package that contains rc.d init files that were dropped until now.
I know this idea was discussed in the past and a lot of our users liked the idea but until now nobody stepped up.
Let me know what you guys want me to support and i'll add it into my package.
At this point it is no longer enough to just keep the old rc scripts. Initscripts need to be maintained and an increasing number of packages need to be altered to support both init systems. It would be quite some work and you probably cant put everything into one single package without affecting other packages. I'd say you'll need a strong technical reason to do this. ATM I cant think of any problem that initscripts solved but systemd cant. Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://pierre-schmitz.com
