Description: dependency based service manager (runlevel change mechanism)
OpenRC is a dependency based service manager. It provides support for System V
init, for booting, changing runlevels, starting and stopping services, and
shutting down.
.
Originally written as a Gentoo project, OpenRC aims at being
platform-agnostic. It works equally well on Linux, BSD and Hurd.
It supports the traditional init system in Debian in addition to many
alternatives. OpenRC is implemented in C in a small, simple and
efficient way, making it easy to understand, extend and reuse.
.
This package provides the runlevel change mechanism.
