Description:   Opened: 2004-08-06 02:58 0000 
When emerging app-admin/gentoo-rsync-mirror, it replaces the /etc/init.d/rsyncd
, and when you update or reemerge net-misc/rsync , it replaces it back, and so
forth.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge net-misc/rsync
2. etc-update
3. emerge app-admin/gentoo-rsync-mirror
4. etc-update

Actual Results:  
They both changes /etc/init.d/rsyncd

Expected Results:  
app-admin/gentoo-rsync-mirror should use another name, like for 
instance /etc/init.d/gentoo-rsyncd

The best solution would be to rename the init script from gentoo-rsync-mirror
to rsyncd.example, and install it as a doc.
Then mention it in einfo, that the scripts need some changes to work.

since the init.d script that comes with the rsync-mirror package sucks i just
removed it

the one that comes with net-misc/rsync is damn fine ! :)
