Unless things have changed drastically since the last time I looked the
*-openrc init scripts are created by the openrc package (which is a large split
package). Probably the best approach for missing ones would be to create the
missing one(s) add them to that package then push the patches upstream, So that
other distros that support openrc get them as well.
