Maybe we should try a more generic approach like e.g. provide a compatibility
package for redhat init scripts? The redhat initscripts package (and with it
/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions) is GPL. In addition: on SuSE /etc/rc.d is a
symlink to /etc/init.d. So the minimum we need for such a
rh-initscripts-compat package is:
   /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions          (from redhat)
   /etc/init.d/init.d -> /etc/init.d   (symlink)

I'm afraid that we invest too much effort in SuSE specific stuff which is not
useful to other distro ports at all.

Erich
