[Soc-coordination] Weekly report 8 - OpenRC init system in Debian

[Bill Wang]

Hi,

I'm happy send this week report. :)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary for we have done:
-- Test update-rc.d and invoke-rc.d.
-- Try out resolve gdm3 issue.
-- Testing see if transit have problems(Currently not found the problems).
-- Try out modify init-functions to instead modify shebangs, but have
not a good idea.
I don't think we should do it, the init-functions belong to the sysv-rc.
If we successfully
replaced the sysv-rc and make OpenRC as the default init system, LSB
will become an era, is not?

Problem:
-- When click shutdown at gnome shell menu, seems have some problem.
First the user was logout and back to the login screen before stop
gdm3(working...).

Planning for next time:
-- Continue testing and improve update-rc.d and invoke-rc.d, it's necessary.
-- Find and fixing gdm3 issue.
-- Perhaps mentors have other requirements.
