I'd like to add that switching to openrc breaks the SysV/LSB support in systemd. Openrc doesn't use the /etc/rc?.d/ directories to create the symlinks which signal if a service is active for a given runlevel. (those symlinks are created in /etc/runlevel/* afaics) This means systemd doesn't consider the SysV/LSB init script as enabled and won't start it on boot. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
