Makes sense, though I wouldn't necessarily make it a hard requirement. |

Also, upstream units may not be usable as-is. They might reference |

incorrect file locations (though I'd hope not for the most part), and |

in particular dependency naming will always be a challenge. |

Upstream rejection of a unit should certainly not lead to Gentoo |
| 12 |
rejection of a unit, any more than their rejection of a script for |
| 13 |
OpenRC should. Upstreams will likely be slow to embrace the |

init-scripts-aren't-just-for-distros thing. |
