I know we posted a news item back in November about the deprecation of old school rc.d scripts, but the current silent removal thing is not real cool, and one never knows what package is going to fail to start up next. Last week it was openvpn, today it appears samba has lost its script.

There are relevant mailing list posts about it: https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2013-January/024291.... https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2013-January/024295.... I don't know where the mentioned package is, I couldn't find it. I don't really see the problem - we said that we will not support non-systemd systems starting January, and that is what is happening.
