In the past, OpenRC was a hybrid of a centralized and file-scope
license/copyright structure.
I followed the instructions from the Software Freedom Law Center [1] to
convert to a Centralized structure where possible, for easier future
maintenance.

The posix equivalent of the type command is "command -v", so now we use
that. Thanks to Jonathan Callen <jcallen@gentoo.org> for informing me
wrt the fix.
This avoids situations in which fuser hangs because of open files on
remote file systems when the remote system goes down.
I have also passed this bug on to the maintainers of psmisc since it
should really be fixed in fuser.

query runlevels, services and state without using bash. We also provide
libeinfo so other programs can easily use our informational functions.
As such, we have dropped the requirement of using bash as the init script
shell. We now use /bin/sh and have strived to make the scripts as portable
as possible. Shells that work are bash and dash. busybox works provided
you disable s-s-d. If you have WIPE_TMP set to yes in conf.d/bootmisc you
should disable find too.
zsh and ksh do not work at this time.
Networking support is currently being re-vamped also as it was heavily bash
array based. As such, a new config format is available like so
config_eth0="1.2.3.4/24 5.6.7.8/16"
or like so
config_eth0="'1.2.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.0' '5.6.7.8 netmask 255.255.0.0'"
We will still support the old bash array format provided that /bin/sh IS
a link it bash.
ChangeLog for baselayout-1 can be found in our SVN repo.
