41 For everyone's information -- The conf.d/net removal on upgrade is a
42 packaging issue, which could not have been tested prior to
43 openrc-0.12.ebuild hitting the tree. There are details in
44 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481336 if anyone's interested
45 in why it's happening.
46
47 I've fixed the 0.12.ebuild in the tree now. It's a hack but it seems
48 to be the best possible solution.
