[gentoo-embedded] init.d scripts and bash

[Natanael Copa]

Hi,

Are there anybody more than me that use the gentoo init.d scripts
without using bash?

Most init.d scripts runs just fine with a small runscript wrapper. A few
needs patching to work, typically replacing:

  [[ expr || expr ]]

with:

  [[ expr ]] || [[ expr ]]

But sometimes arrays and such are used (very often its easy to work
around)

Are there any hope for setting a gentoo policy that says bash specific
things should be avoided if possible in init.d scripts?
