Come to think of it... If you read init.d anyway, why not read it at boot time if a new directive is set, e.g. apply-lsb-instructions=true?

Thanks a lot Arnt,

Please do not assume that I am a hardcore programmer or a hardcore UNIX/Linux admin. I just started all of these at almost the same time when Devuan was born. I would not be so determined to do all of these if systemd did not ruin my PC and Linux ecosystem in general.

So I am not really sure what you meant by "reading the new directives at boot time". Which directive would that be, where is it located and which package provides that?

I would imagine that there is no need for epoch to do anything else at boot time, a part from doing the normal init process. However, its epoch.conf needs to be automatically updated with the parameters of the daemons/services when their packages are being installed or removed. This is the job of the separate program or script outside epoch but provided by epoch package.

Perhaps, there would be other functions that need to be added into epoch package later on. I think (or I hope) I got enough for the base line to start reading (a lot of things and trying) and develop Debian build scripts for epoch. But I am open to any feedbacks on what I am doing.

Cheers,

Anto
