Packages

Also need an OpenRC start/stop/status script

I compiled it myself meanwhile (really needed it), I used the openrc script provided by Gentoo.

This works fine :

#!/usr/bin/openrc-run
# Copyright 2018 Hyperbola Project
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2

extra_started_commands="reload"

depend() {
	after modules
}

start() {
	ebegin "Starting thinkfan"
	start-stop-daemon --start --exec /usr/bin/thinkfan -- -q -s5 -c /etc/thinkfan.conf
	eend $?
}

stop() {
	ebegin "Stopping thinkfan"
	start-stop-daemon --stop --exec /usr/bin/thinkfan
	eend $?
}

reload() {
	PID=$(<@PID_FILE@)
	ebegin "Sending SIGHUP to thinkfan($PID)"
	kill -HUP $PID
	eend $?
}

Thanks for the input, but this package cannot be added as it depends on libatasmart and this library is a complete problem of its own. Sorry, but adding won't be possible.
