Subject: [devuan-dev] bug#802: bug#802: openrc: openrc-run: to many broken options
I think it is worth correcting the behavior when using the option 'output_log'.
it can be done without difficulty by simply editing the file /lib/rc/sh/start-stop-daemon.sh

should change the line number 48 from '${output_log+--stdout} $output_log '
to {output_log+--output} $output_log '.

this will allow to use the 'output_log' option with start-stop-daemon from Debian.

It is not possible to correct the behavior of the other options because they have no equivalent in the start-stop-daemon implementation from Debian.

Thank you!
