-# This is a *temporary* workaround to OpenRC hanging at times if plugins are
-# used on a musl-based system (such as plymouth-openrc-plugin). This also means
-# plymouth will not be ran on shutdown, but given this service is temporary, it
-# should be fine. It will be replaced with the plymouth-openrc-plugin again when
-# this is fixed upstream, which has better integration.
