Some long-standing requests from the Gentoo side:
- Please test your scripts with something non-bash (e.g. dash on Debian or
Ubuntu; see https://529806.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=389706 for
particular failures).
- Don't install things into `/var/run`, instead the package should create
these at run-time.
And, the big one: provide options that allow me to slot in system-provided
versions of bundled dependencies. E.g., snappy (not sure what else is bundled
these days).
