+long_desc="
+ OpenRC is a dependency based init system that works with the system
+ provided init program, normally /sbin/init. It is not a replacement for
+ /sbin/init. OpenRC is 100% compatible with Gentoo init scripts, which
+ means you can probably find one for the daemons you want to start in the
+ Gentoo Portage Tree. OpenRC also provides an init script that runs BSD
+ rc.d style scripts too, making it easy to port your BSD system to OpenRC."
