1. OpenRC will provide /libexec/rc/version, a text file containing the

that requires us to actually utilize /libexec/ which is not a Linux
convention on any system ive ever seen.
OpenRC works on systems other than Linux and uses the best hierarchy it
can to match them all.
i know why you use it, but that doesnt mean Gentoo (Linux) should
rhetorical:
Should Gentoo (FreeBSD)?
Also, should Gentoo (Linux) never break with tradition even if
somethings are better elsewhere?
Note, I'm not pushing for Gentoo to use /libexec at all, but you'll have
to move the version file in the ebuild as it just won't work when you
pass LIBEXECDIR=/lib/rc to the make targets.
Thanks
