Bugzilla Bug 106540

All the time when I run "eselect rc restart <whatever>", I get the following
error messages:

blatt ~ # eselect rc restart serial

Will be fixed by next release. For the time being, change rc.eselect:214 to be
  [[ ${#@}-gt 1]]
instead of
  [[ ${#@} -gt 1 ]]

Thanks for reporting this bug!

Lets keep these open, as technically the issues are not fixed until the next
release is in the tree.

1.0_rc1 is in cvs.  Please test and reopen if necessary.
