Makes sense that tmpfiles.d comes from systemd, if he's trying to get away from shell scripts. But for those who think it's annoying to have to put 3 separate steps in your init script 'start' section (mkdir -p, chown, chmod), I'd like to point out that you may as well just use install -d, and do it all in one step. Not to say we _can't_ adopt the tmpfiles.d approach, just that doing this sort of thing inside your init script need not be painful. -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
