It's in some way a bit above my knowledge, but the essentials i think i got. My excuses in advance anyway ;) But let me say this: *FROM A USER POINT OF VIEW* OpenRC is easier, the config scripts in /etc/conf.d are way simpler than those of sysvinit. May be you remember, i also tried Void but, may be due to my linuxwise incompetence, i found it not so easy to configure and sometimes (for the wpasupplicant/dhcpcd thing) confusing. Anyway, from theory, a suckless init as pid1 + openrc might be a slick combo (?). As for the respawn problem: I'm not sure, but i think OpenRC gives the possibility to mark/flag/config certain daemons and/or processes to be respawned. That might be better than doing that by default ... (?) E.g., i would not like to have privoxy respawned automatically in case something with its configurations does not work. But anyway ... I saw you're hanging around from time to time in the manjaro-openrc group. I think you might ask to artoo, which seems to be a quite smart openrc wizzard. And btw, in manjaro-openrc the scripts are configured as /bin/bash (or sh? - for sure not as /bin/openrc; which is sometimes a problem when you use directly a gentoo script: you have to think of this changement). _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
