Hi Colin and Joey,

Following up what Colin wrote, I opened #729248. Then Joey closed the
same day, writing:

"Something is certianly wrong if every new init system requires packages
that have a versioned ored dependency on every other init system be
rebuilt.

Someone else is going to have to figure this out, I am not interested in
upstart."

Well, I'm trying to fix the OpenRC problem, not Upstart. And I'm really
confused, not knowing what's the way forward here... :(

Any advice here?

Cheers,

Thomas
