Description Étienne Buira 2023-10-24 19:05:23 UTC

Hi,

My process to build images is to merge required packages, remove some known unneeded ones, and then --depclean.

However, just adding daemontools (not as init!) to the required package list causes --depclean to remove openrc.

Wouldn't it be safer to require a (possibly dummy) "init" useflag for daemontools to satisfy virtual/service-manager?

Regards.

Reproducible: Always
