Description

Right now phd is more human than machine friendly. Is it possible to get an init-phd wrapper that would be lsb compliant? I know packaging is a tertiary concern but (for us at least) being able to manage phd via normal service mechanism is invaluable.

Example:

When we try to start a started phd service it return 1 where 0 is the standard

FWIW I hope whatever solution is built is not specific to Linux and the LSB but will work with other non-linux POSIX systems as well.

Do other non-linux POSIX systems expect different, incompatible behaviors?

to the best of my knowledge, no, but I will comment on the implementation if I see anything incompatible.

I was being generic in my comment above.
