Yes, but then when an openrc user wants to start/stop a service, he
cannot do '/etc/init.d/myservice start' like he could do on any other
OS using openrc. He'd have to do '/etc/openrc/myservice start'. Not a
really big deal, but I think it's undesirable to make Devuan's openrc
procedures different (especially when it could be addressed with a
simple symlink).
Normally the admin invokes the service command,
sudo service ssh restart
sudo service nginx status
etc.
service could probably be modified to talk to the init system in
charge.
Normally *this* admin never uses the service command because:
I always use it. With some experience you know the service names as
well as the basic Unix command names.
1) it is not available on all distros or may not be installed
Talking of Debian/Devuan
2) tab completion doesn't always work with the service command (depending
on the distro, I suppose)
3) tab completion always works when you specify the path to the script
and you are running a bash shell
Is the service called 'smb' or 'samba'? Is it 'network' or 'networking'?
That's why tab completion is important to me. I'm surprised that I seem
to be the only one who thinks this way.
Bash tab completion does work - I agree it's rather sophisticated.
