OpenRC is a dependency-based init system that works with the
system-provided init program, normally /sbin/init
.
This fork provides extra functionality like user services.
OpenRC uses the meson build system, so use the usual methods for this build system to build and install.
We don't support building a static OpenRC with PAM.
PKG_PREFIX
should be set to where packages install to by default.
LOCAL_PREFIX
should be set to where user maintained packages are.
Only set LOCAL_PREFIX
if different from PKG_PREFIX
.
ROOTPREFIX
should be set when the root path is different from '/'.
rc
and rc.shutdown
are the hooks from the BSD init into OpenRC.
devd.conf
is modified from FreeBSD to call /etc/rc.devd
which is a
generic hook into OpenRC.
inittab
is the same, but for SysVInit as used by most Linux distributions.
This can be found in the support folder.
Obviously, if you're installing this onto a system that does not use OpenRC by default then you may wish to backup the above listed files, remove them and then install so that the OS hooks into OpenRC.
