Add init file to load sysctl configuration files

Examples:

/etc/init.d/sysctl
----
#!/usr/bin/openrc-run
command="/usr/bin/sysctl"
command_args="--system"
----
/etc/runlevels/boot/sysctl

An issue was discovered in GNU patch through 2.7.6. There is a segmentation fault, associated with a NULL pointer dereference, leading to a denial of service in the intuit_diff_type function in pch.c, aka a “mangled rename” issue.

https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-6951

osdbattery is (probably) useless and broken so Conky did compete because It is still unmaintained and unsupported over 14 years ago (last released version 1.4 on August 23, 2005), and should be removed per anti-abandonware rule at the packaging guidelines.

Also, the default config file contains non-libre/free Microsoft font Verdana as X11 font format property in font variable.

Description:

• needs OpenRC init scripts (hg serve and chg server), like [git] (git-daemon) and [subversion] (svnserve)

Additional info:

• mercurial 4.2-1

Note: needs a provide: hg

Steps to reproduce:

• none

Description:

• needs OpenRC init script and contains systemd file

Additional info:

• mcelog 1:148-1

mcelog /usr/lib/systemd/system/mcelog.service

Steps to reproduce:

• none

Description:

I ran sensors-detect, it detected two modules :

coretemp
it87

Those have been added to /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors :

# This file is sourced by /etc/init.d/lm_sensors and defines the modules to
# be loaded/unloaded.
#
# The format of this file is a shell script that simply defines variables:
# HWMON_MODULES for hardware monitoring driver modules, and optionally
# BUS_MODULES for any required bus driver module (for example for I2C or SPI).

HWMON_MODULES="coretemp it87"

But only coretemp is loaded at boot.

I can manually load it87 module (modprobe it87) and get all sensors working but for some reason it87 module is not loaded at boot.

Add init file to load kernel modules in system configuration

Examples:

/etc/modules.conf
----
btrfs

/etc/modules.d/*.conf
----

/etc/modules.d/nouveau.conf
----
nouveau

/etc/init.d/modules
----
#!/usr/bin/openrc-run
command="/usr/bin/modprobe"
command_args="$(cat /etc/modules.{,d/*}conf)"

/etc/runlevels/boot/modules
