etc/init.d is for sysv init scripts. So the warning seems correct? Anything shipped there should for example include LSB headers, source /lib/lsb/init-functions and so on. I'm not sure openrc would do that given they don't use a shell as an interpreter? If packages ship incompatible scripts for alternative init systems, they should be shipped in a different location such as usr/lib/openrc/init or so. (And please don't add conffiles to generic packages for alternative init systems. Conffiles are often handled badly by packages. Conffiles that stay around after switching init and then break other init systems due to missing LSB headers and/or interpreters also seem like a problem.) Ansgar
