10 Can confirm that systemd-tmpfiles works fine on OpenRC systems. Been
11 using it since end of October.

13 Two things that are different in terms of interface to opentmpfiles is
14 that systemd-tmpfiles does not have --dry-run runtime option, and it
15 will complain if any /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/*.conf uses /var/run instead of
16 /run, but that's just an warning.
17
18 Regardless, it's just a drop-in replacement, have not noticed any issues.
