Hi all, |
| 2 |

| 3 |
Well you're certainly right, Dirk, that one launchd plist for all of |
| 4 |
Gentoo would be easier than distributing a plist per daemon and |
| 5 |
worrying about where to put it. We'd lose some of the functionality of |
| 6 |
launchd, but it's probably a win for non-Darwin prefix users if we |
| 7 |
work on maintaining init.d scripts. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Is the problem with the runlevel not getting reset to do with your |
| 10 |
launchagent being fire-and-forget, with no reboot-time hook? |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Perhaps we could write a small application to stay resident and |
| 13 |
respond to launchd, shutting daemons down cleanly on reboot. |
