   Is there any point to this waste of time-- ie the conversions?

   What is the difference between rc-local.service and local-rc.service?

   What is local.rc?

   What does this mean?   
   Is there any description anywhere of what all of these options are and   
   mean?   
      
   Sorry to sound grumpy, but it is annoying, after having spent 15 years   
   learing init.d to suddenly have to change for no good reason that I can   
   see, except to make things more obscure. I suppose that the next thing   
   is to make these files all compiled binary files as well, so they are   
   utterly unreadable and useless to the user. And then perhaps to put them   
   all into one humungous file.

   How does it know which runlevel to run it at?
