Description William Hubbs gentoo-dev 2015-04-03 14:11:49 UTC
Standalone sysctl supports a --system option which is very useful
because it reads files from system configuration directories.

OpenRC uses this in the sysctl boot script, so it would be good if
busybox's sysctl could support it.

Thanks,

William
