Slept from eleven to six-thirty. Woke briefly around four-thirty.
Cloudy and forty-two today.
Alt-Backspace!!! Deletes the work behind the cursor.
I've decided that it wasn't just first impressions; I do dislike OpenRC.
That's unfortunate, since I otherwise like Alpine linux a lot.
Runit or s6 are much more to my taste.
Work:
- Manager meeting
Canceled!
- Read through this, the best OpenRC tour I've found: http://www.funtoo.org/Package:OpenRC
Done.
- Figure out s6 supervision in Alpine linux
Done.
s6 sets the scan directory as the argument to `s6-svscan` or (if not supplied) its current directory.
On Alpine, the `/etc/init.d/s6-svscan` script sets the scan directory to `/run/openrc/s6-scan` (a tmpfs).
How is that supposed to work?
Because, under OpenRC with s6 supervision, each service supervised by s6 has an OpenRC init script too.
That OpenRC init script can specify `s6_service_path`, which OpenRC symlins into `/run/openrc/s6-scan`.
By default, OpenRC sets `s6_service_path` to `/var/svc.d/${RC_SVCNAME}`.
Thirty minute walk at lunch. Mostly sunny, which is a welcome change.
Debian! What the hell??!! Your minimal installation no longer includes AN EDITOR??!
Not vi. Not even ed.
Home:
- Try to mash runit (Busybox) into Alpine as the init system
No, enough of containers and init systems for today.
- Go to bed early
Done.
Washed and put away dishes. Vacuumed.
Watched a couple of episodes of HBO's The Young Pope.
