Some people are not only bugged, but change packages etc, for
example [1]

+ sed -i -e 's,egrep,grep -E,g' $PKG/usr/lib/postfix/postfix-{,tls-}script

Also /var/log/messages from "somewhere", which is locatable for my
sequential daemon startup script
Feb 27 17:46:24 (none) /root/bin/net-qos.sh/START: Daemon postfix starting
Feb 27 17:46:24 (none) /root/bin/net-qos.sh/START: In startup; postfix is
picky, sleeping 5 to let devices settle
Feb 27 17:46:24 (none) /root/bin/net-qos.sh/START: egrep: warning: egrep is
obsolescent; using grep -E
