Unless the upstream script does quite a bit you're usually better off starting with a generic OpenRC init.d script and just tweaking it vs trying to convert a non-openrc script into an openrc one. Another option is to just create an openrc script wrapper that just calls the upstream one, which is installed elsewhere. Ideally though you want to get pid files and such to show up in the right place. However, if this is for oss I'm not sure you're even launching any daemons vs just setting mixer levels and such. If you aren't actually leaving any processes running calling the upstream script from a wrapper should be pretty harmless. I haven't used openrc since it got cgroup support but I suspect it is better about cleaning up orphans these days as well. -- Rich
