Because original baselayout-1 doesn't compile, and we don't need all it provides. So basically just to get the functions.sh, env-update.sh, env.d/*, etc. we have a very slimmed down version. I haven't tried 2 + openrc to see what happens yet. -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo on a different level

Then we could remove the PDEPEND from baselayout and we would still be assured that openrc will be installed everywhere by default. This would also be another step toward allowing users to remove openrc if they don't want it on their systems. Thoughts?
