No that I'm aware of
, unfortunately.
I still get the feeling like we are not totally sure these scripts are
still needed nowadays. Do you think it would be too much dangerous to test
if we need still those files in Fedora via the System-wide Change? (I.e. do
the change in rawhide, see if it breaks something. fallback if necessary.)
It could at least tell us the current state of things, and maybe create a
plan on how to fix things, so they could be eventually removed at some
point.
In any case I would like to find a new home for these scripts, so they
don't "block" other work on initscripts package. And if it would turned out
we can't remove those scripts yet, at least to do some cleanup in those
scripts if possible.
