This directory will contain tools which are not necessary for OpenRC to
run, but which some users have found useful.
The first of these is deptree2dot, which converts /run/openrc/deptree to
a .dot file for use with graphviz. This can assist in finding circular
dependencies.
The OpenRC upstream default network stack was changed, but there was no
reason to change it. Now since we have the MKNET build switch, it is
easy for the gentoo ebuild to install oldnet by default.
The upstream default is newnet.
The MKNET variable can be used to select the network stack you want to
build and install with OpenRC.
The current default is the gentoo "oldnet" stack. If you want to install
the OpenRC newnet stack, use MKNET=newnet on the make command line.
This reverts commit 5994e55937.
There are situations where these scripts can be useful, so I am bringing
them back. Also, I want to start discussions about simplifying the
OpenRC network stack.
The MKSTATICLIBS switch, which defaults to yes, controls whether or not
static libraries are built and installed.

These scripts are not supported, and they have several major design
issues such as not being able to stop, start or allow a dependency on a
single interface.
This allows the default value of rc_sys to be set when openrc is
compiled. This will allow openrc to be installed, e.g. on vserver guests
and will allow them to be rebooted without the need to edit rc.conf.
This patch is a combined effort between myself and Robin Johnson.

Update the documentation to state that openrc only works with gnu make.
This needs to be done in order to address the parallel build issue.
