Subject: [gentoo-dev] Transitioning from #!/sbin/runscript to,#!/sbin/openrc-run

1 Hi there,

3 I've been working on the transition from #!/sbin/runscript to
4 #!/sbin/openrc-run [1], by starting on the maintainer-needed packages.
5 That's done (aside from some stabilizations needed, but I'll deal with that
6 latter). The trouble is that there are roughly 700 packages that need to
7 be updated, and that's an insane number of bugs to file.
8
9 So, instead, I'm going to give developers to two weeks to update their
10 initscripts or ask me not to touch it. On/after 2016/05/18, I'll update
11 initscripts/copyrights, but will leave revbumping to maintainer's discretion.

13 Thanks,
14 Austin
