Hi, in my affords to write a gentoo installscript (ebuild) [^1] for shinken I tried to adopt the way gentoo's directory structure. Working dir: /var/lib/shinken PID-Location: /var/run/shinken/ and it's openrc-init scripts [^2]
My Questions: 1. Is there anyone else interested in this? 2. Is it possible to place the PID outside the working_dir? 3. At gentoo the install (setup.py) is processed in a sandbox and in the end merged to the real place in the directory-tree. So I start the `setup.py install --root=/var/tmp/portage/net-analyzer/shinken-0.6.5/image/ --no-compile` in the config after this the path of --root is set to all config files and my script have to remove this before merging to the real filesystem. Is there a installation-option to prepare e.g. a change-root-install ?
