Summary: Review Request: initng https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=173459 ------- Additional Comments From enrico.scholz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 2006-03-09 06:09 EST ------- It would be nice when the programs and the initscripts would be shipped in different packages: * the initscripts are evolving more and more from simple 'exec start' commands to complex and slow 'script start' sequences. Most of the code executed there can be done shorter and faster when omitting generality * the initscripts are sometimes very Gentoo specific; e.g. they enforce a special syntax to declare bind-mounts * when initng comes into Core, I am prognosing that we will see all the Requires: which are in the 'initscripts' package already but which are needed under certain circumstances only So, I would like when the packaged initscripts would be optional so that a user could write optimized scripts for his system and/or package alternative initscripts with minimal dependencies. I suggest to use a virtual provides so you could write something like ,--- | ... main-package ... | Requires: initscripts(initng) | | %package initscripts | Provides: initscripts(initng) | Requires(post): initng = %version-%release | ... | %post initscripts | /sbin/gen_system_runlevel | ... | %files initscripts | %defattr(-,root,root) | %config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/initng/* -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
