Matthias,

Thanks for this.

I have to admit to not being very excited by this prospect. With full
appreciation of Matthew's work on orphan-sysvinit-scripts and without any
implied criticism at all, I still believe the very best place for startup
scripts is within the relevant packages.

So if greetd needs a startup script, the first step should be to write one and
ask the maintainer to include it. Has that been tried?

Best wishes

Mark
