* How about the following then.
*
* /etc/config/pkg/* <-- config files for package foo, if needed by that
* package.
*
* /etc/scripts/pkg <-- package startup script
*
* /etc/scripts.conf <-- what to run and when to run it
*
* I don't like the latter, but here are some thoughts on what it might
* contain:
*
* fsck:
* ffs: fsck
* network:
* nfsclient: network
* nfsserver: network ffs
*
* This way you get a unique tag pkg: and a dependancies list. A simple
* C program could generate what is needed. This file and the format
* isn't what I think is best, just a possibility. In fact, it kinda
* sucks, doesn't it? :)
Not entirely. In fact, you could potentially turn it into a sort of
Makefile which lists dependencies and targets, i.e.
all: fsck network
fsck:
@ fsck -p;
network: nfsclient nfsserver nisclient amd
...etc...
Of course, that's a bit more difficult preserving the
starting rpc daemons: portmap nfsiod.
output, but again, that's purely cosmetic.
