[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, Florent, 在 2006-04-19三的 09:13 +0200，Florent Thoumie写道： [...] > I'd rather like seeing ports rc.d scripts fixed to require either DAEMON > or LOGIN, depending on if they should run as root or not. > > After my latest commit to rc.d/named, ldconfig is started right after > mountcritremote (means ASAP), so this change doesn't really do anything. I would prefer that SERVERS to do REQUIRE: ldconfig for the following reasons: - SERVERS is the place (or divider) where we can ensure, say, critical early services, can start properly. We should implement the semantic. - Currently SERVERS already have a REQUIRE: line pointing to abi, which is, in my opinion, of the same nature with ldconfig. - With "BEFORE: named" we can effectively make ldconfig to run after our script. While BEFORE is generally not encouraged, I think it's confusing for programmer who writes rc.d scripts, and makes it hard to debug. Therefore I think making SERVERS to REQUIRE: ldconfig makes better protection for early startup daemons.
