Hi all, |

|
| 3 |
There has been a bit of confusion over a change I made recently. I |
| 4 |
would like to publish a news item before the relevant version of |
| 5 |
systemd is marked stable. |

|

Any suggestions are welcome. |

Starting with systemd-236, the sysv-utils USE flag is enabled by |
| 19 |
default. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
The sysv-utils USE flag controls installation of symlinks for several |
| 22 |
key commands: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
/sbin/halt -> ../bin/systemctl |
| 25 |
/sbin/init -> ../lib/systemd/systemd |
| 26 |
/sbin/reboot -> ../bin/systemctl |
| 27 |
/sbin/poweroff -> ../bin/systemctl |
| 28 |
/sbin/runlevel -> ../bin/systemctl |
| 29 |
/sbin/shutdown -> ../bin/systemctl |
| 30 |
/sbin/telinit -> ../bin/systemctl |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
These commands are otherwise provided by sys-apps/sysvinit. This package |
| 33 |
is blocked by systemd when the sysv-utils USE flag is enabled. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
If you wish to keep sysvinit (and openrc) installed, you may disable the |
| 36 |
sysv-utils USE flag locally. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
If you run into unresolvable blockers with sysv-utils enabled, ensure |
| 39 |
that you do not have any reverse dependencies of sys-apps/sysvinit |
| 40 |
selected (in your world file). |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Common packages to look for: |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
sys-apps/sysvinit |
| 45 |
sys-apps/openrc |
| 46 |
net-misc/netifrc |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
The equery command from gentoolkit may help track down installed |
| 49 |
packages that depend on openrc. |

|

equery depends sys-apps/openrc |
