   i am working on a implementation of that for openrc for a while now, it's been working nicely so far: https://github.com/OpenRC/openrc/pull/573

   I've used this opportunity to look at some recent init files.

   Here's one of the first I stumbled upon.

   https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nagioscore/blob/master/...

   It's 288 lines long; the LSB dependency nonsense is 8 lines of that.

   Then I looked up one for Postgres;

   https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Lsb_conforming_init_script

   This one is a whooping 356 lines long, LSB is again about 10 lines long, depending whether you count the header or not.

   I don't think the "LSB dependency" argument holds water.
