Hi all, |

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. |
