Those functions were removed from functions.sh as only update-modules |
| 18 |
still uses them. udev does use KV_to_int though. I don't really want to |
| 19 |
add those functions back. Although we could trivially add is_older_than |
| 20 |
as a C applet built into rc. |

Quite possibly. I'm sure some bright spark can actually say what's wrong |
| 26 |
before it hits portage. |

They're supposed to belong in /etc/conf.d/$SVCNAME |
| 42 |
Maybe you could suggest better wording? |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
I suppose we could also allow |
| 45 |
rc_$SVCNAME_$depend to work, for example |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
rc_clock_need="modules" |
| 48 |

The timezone was variable was just a hack for the timezone ebuild to |
| 54 |
update /etc/localtime if it's not a symlink. I'm striving to remove all |
| 55 |
"Gentooisms" from it so that it really is platform neutral. |
