The cache directory should be created via mkdir -p instead of
mkdir. This makes sure all parent directories are created.
Also, we now display an error message explaining that we were unable to
create the cache directory if creation fails.
We were originally checking to see if $RC_LIBEXECDIR/cache was writable. For
a new install, this check will fail since this path does not exist. This
is also incorrect because later we create $RC_LIBEXECDIR/cache.
The correct check is checkpath -W $RC_LIBEXECDIR, and this fixes the
issue.

checkpath -W can fail if the specified path doesn't actually exist yet.
In this case savecache script should attempt to create the path if it is
missing, however it is pre-empted by the checkpath call. This patch adds
an explicit existence test before executing checkpath.
This fixes#36.
This was requested by Debian, because the minicom software, which is
available on Debian and other distros, has a binary named runscript. We
are keeping a backward compatibility symlink for now, but this allows
Debian or any other distro to safely remove the symlink.

SBINDIR and BINDIR can be set independently of PREFIX. This fixes
broken shebangs in service files when SBINDIR is set to something other
than PREFIX/sbin

This is needed in case of a read-only root filesystem such as a diskless
client.

Since mount-ro needs to run unconditionally, we need to have savecache
report that it ran successfully when the system is shutting down.

the mtime of a file. It saves the shutdown time to this file also.
This is handy for systems without a working RTC chip.
Based on an idea by Michael A. Smith <michael@smith-li.com>.
Fixes Gentoo #272073.
OpenRC version is now stored as plaintext in /libexec/rc/version
Plugins (cursplash, splashutils) will have to be re-compiled to pickup
the new directories. State data needs to be moved from /lib/rc/init.d
to /libexec/rc/init.d as well.
Split halt.sh into halt, killprocs, romount and savecache services.
The reboot runlevel is removed but mapped to shutdown.
The halt script should be moved to the sysvinit package.
