You could just copy the /etc/rc.d/redis file to /etc/rc.d/redis2 and modify the 
daemon_flags settings in it to use a separate config file.

Then 
- rcctl enable redis2 
- rcctl start redis2

I just tried that and it seems to work.

I think that this is a mailing list about OpenBSD, not US politics. But I may 
be mistaken.

Did you stop and disable apmd when using obsdfreqd? That did the trick for me.

htop install fails on -current

[Louis Brauer]

I've just installed 7.4-current on an ARM64 machine and tried to pkg_add the 
"htop" package. It fails and this is the output of pkg_add:

It works fine on -stable. Since I do not have much experience with -current or 
the package system, I'm not sure if that is a bug in the -current tree or if 
there is anything I missed?

Any advice would be much appreciated.
