I'd still like to break out to /var/lib/openhab/{conf,userdata} for ${WRKDIST}/{conf,userdata} but getting the fake framework and PLIST was still proving a challenge. I'm also working on fixing restart (need seatbelts around start/stop since the wrapper scripts don't produce the pid until they complete). Everything else should be updated based on feedback. Thanks again for all the help. -- V/r, Charlie
