Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2020 12:40:13 +0200

Hello,


I now have tested the patch series in #40601

also on latest devuan-sysvinit x86_64.

Here's the first one: ;-)

the sysvinit init.d script relies on "daemonize" which is not

installed by default on devuan.


Would fixing it by checking a second round of REQUIRED_BY_INIT

after checking the init type be the right way ?


Or should I report an issue about that ?


But if daemonize is installed, the sysvinit support works

as expected, and I can run guix commands as for the

other tests I did.


Thanks
