So, should I stop work on runit-scripts and s6-scripts? If this is all for naught, then why put the effort in?
I didn't say that, duh. I said it was a hard problem to solve in the general case, that there was no simple shortcut, and that the framework needed to support more flexible weaving of one-time initialization and service startup. That doesn't mean converting as many scripts as possible from SysV to a supervision scheme isn't worth doing - on the contrary, it's a very laudable initiative, and thanks for the effort you're putting in! Just don't expect perfect results for now - and please stay tuned, because I'll try to improve the framework soon, and hopefully make your work easier. -- Laurent
