The cgred service is not starting because cgrulesengd cannot find cgconfig.conf Reproducible: Always There are two problems with the cgred service. The first one is the path to the cgconfig.conf file which is wrong, causing cgrulesengd (the cgred daemon) to fail. This is fixed by adding this line to the ebuild script: sed -e 's:/etc/cgconfig.conf:/etc/cgroup/cgconfig.conf:' \ -i src/libcgroup-internal.h || die "sed failed" The second problem, once the first one is fixed, is that the cgred service loses track of the daemon, making it impossible to stop the service. This is because cgrulesengd fork itself to run in background, so the service loses track of the pid of the process. Adding the following line in /etc/conf.d/cgred fixes the problem, preventing the fork: CGRED_OPTS="-n" This option may be add directly in the init.d script.
