Well, I just sync'ed and `emerge -puD system` doesn't show up anything |
| 11 |
todo, and I didn't mask out anything. So can I assume my init system |
| 12 |
is up to date ? |

Not at my site, just checked it. |

Yes, of course. But that's not what I'm actually looking for. |
| 23 |
Recently I had the problem that some service died, which was necessary |
| 24 |
for another one. While trying to start the other one, I ran into |
| 25 |
trouble since the init system didn't know about the died service. |
| 26 |

If the lookup would go directly to checking things like pidfiles |
| 28 |
(where applicable) instead of the flag files, such problems would |
| 29 |
(IMHO) be entirely fixed. |
