Tested OK on SPARC, could stabilise.

[Comment 4 Jordan 2011-02-20 20:55:36 UTC]

So dhcpcd's taking a long time to boot and preventing me from connecting to my wlan is normal?

I had done for for dhcpcd-5.2.8, using bugzilla's search function I cannot find my bug submission. So either it was deleted due to no one caring, or bugzilla's search engine is rubbish. Whatever I'll file another one.

Arch teams, this appears to be a user configuration issue, so please continue with stabilization.

Thanks,

William

Please stop the stabilisation until baselayout-2 is stabilised, or provide an alternative init script.  dispatch-conf gives:

all good here

Huh?  That is _net.eth0_ restart, not _dhcpcd_ restart.

Try issuing "/etc/init.d/dhcpcd restart" instead of your "/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart".

[Comment 11 David Abbott (RETIRED) 2011-02-21 09:16:49 UTC]

OK you are correct;
 /etc/init.d/dhcpcd restart
 * This script cannot be used for baselayout-1.

And that is exactly what is supposed to happen. This script can only be used with openrc. Dhcpcd on baselayout 1 is supposed to be run by the net.* scripts when it is needed.

Thanks,

William

BTW, there is a problem with this ebuild:

 Fetched file: dhcpcd-5.2.10.tar.bz2 VERIFY FAILED!
 Reason: Filesize does not match recorded size
 Got:      71032
 Expected: 71140

I spoke with upstream and found that he had inadvertently changed his tarball. However, this is now fixed on his server.

Arch teams, please continue stabilizing.

Arnaud, this should have been handled in a separate bug. In the future, if you have an issue, please open a separate bug and mmake it block the stable request.
