This document covers standards and guidelines on writing PKGBUILDs for init scripts, e.g. openrcAUR.
Package naming
For init scripts, use modulename-init. For example: ananicy-cpp-openrcAUR, ananicy-cpp-runitAUR, ananicy-cpp-dinitAUR, ananicy-cpp-s6AUR.
Note The package name should be entirely lowercase.
Architecture
See PKGBUILD#arch.
A init script should be architecture-independent.
Depends
All scripts should depend on its init, i.e. ananicy-cpp-openrcAUR requires openrcAUR for it to work.
