Description:   Opened: 2004-06-11 04:34 0000 
I performed an emerge -uD world today, which updated grep from 2.5.1-r1 to
2.5.1-r2 and installed libpcre-4.4 as a dependency (the perl useflag is new in
grep-2.5.1-r2, it's not in the 2.5.1-r1 ebuild).

This led to a failure in calculating module dependencies on boot.

I just downgraded to grep-2.5.1-r1, unmerged libpcre, and everything seems to
be fine again.

Ok, I just reemerged latest grep-2.5.1-r2 with USE="-perl" and everything is
still working fine, no error messages on boot, so it has to be a problem
related to libpcre-4.4.

Just hit the same problem and then also downgraded grep. After that it worked
again. I think it is a dependency problem.. localmount -> runscript.sh -> grep
and grep is dynamically linked to /usr/lib/libpcre.so.0  So in case your /usr
is on a partition of its own, you are in trouble..

yep.  comment #2 is right on.  I've modified the ebuild to link it statically
if you have USE="perl" which should fix this.

Resync and try it again please.

Actually, -r4 is better.

------- Comment #6 From Master One 2004-06-12 01:19:22 0000 ------- 
I indeed have /usr on a separate partition, and 2.5.1-r4 fixed it, I just
emerged it, unmerged libpcre and did a reboot, now everything is fine again.
