This is commonly provided by the port maintainer - I haven't conducted a survey but I'm pretty confident that service scripts in FreeBSD ports rarely make it into rc.d without a deliberate freebsdization.
- JdeBP 10y agoI have read all of the rc scripts that come with base FreeBSD and PC-BSD, and some of the NetBSD ones too. Coding style with Mewburn rc is nowhere near as divergent as it is with van Smoorenburg rc.
- INTPenis 10y agoYes I think Ports played a big role in keeping me out of rc scripts on FreeBSD. Ports just had everything you needed. But again, packages could play the same role on Linux but the reason they don't always do that is because of custom services, in-house developed, or proprietary purchased.
