net-misc/networkmanager install the "10-openrc-status" dispatcher script to sync status of NM with openrc net. If running systemd, there is no openrc net, so it's useless. Also the failure of the script gets logged all the time. So just install the script, if not running systemd. Reproducible: Always

In this case, I suppose we shouldn't install /etc/init.d/NetworkManager either, since it requires the dispatcher script to work.
That's not important, because the init.d script will never be called by something. It's the dispatcher script, which gets called on suspend/resume, etc. So, to save another condition in the ebuild, I would only skip the dispatcher script.
Fixed in 0.9.6.0; thanks for reporting. >*networkmanager-0.9.6.0 (13 Sep 2012) > > 13 Sep 2012; Alexandre Rostovtsev <tetromino@gentoo.org> > -files/10-openrc-status-r1, -networkmanager-0.8-r1.ebuild, > -files/networkmanager-0.8-confchanges.patch, > -files/networkmanager-0.8-nscd-clear-cache.patch, > -files/networkmanager-0.8-read-hostname.patch, -networkmanager-0.9.0.ebuild, > -files/networkmanager-0.9.1.95-force-libnl1.1.patch, > -networkmanager-0.9.2.0-r5.ebuild, > -files/networkmanager-0.9.2.0-ifnet-ignore-user-connections.patch, > -files/networkmanager-0.9.2.0-ifnet-openrc-style.patch, > -files/networkmanager-0.9.2.0-ifnet-password-truncated.patch, > -files/networkmanager-0.9.2.0-ifnet-remove-system-prefix.patch, > -files/networkmanager-0.9.2.0-ifnet-unquote-hostname.patch, > -files/networkmanager-0.9.2.0-init-provide-net.patch, > +networkmanager-0.9.6.0.ebuild, > +files/networkmanager-0.9.6.0-cached-ipv6-routes-1.patch, > +files/networkmanager-0.9.6.0-cached-ipv6-routes-2.patch, > +files/networkmanager-0.9.6.0-daemon-signals.patch, > -files/NetworkManagerDispatcher, -files/nm-system-settings.conf, > metadata.xml: > Version bump with various fixes.

I believe that the dispatcher script can just check if openrc is running, instead of removing arbitrary files depending on USE=systemd. I also believe that checking if openrc is running is a one liner.
A simple: if [ ! -e "/run/openrc/softlevel" ]; then # OpenRC is not running exit 0 fi inside 10-openrc-status is much better. Please have a look at the net-misc/networkmanager ebuild at the systemd-love overlay [1]. [1] https://github.com/Sabayon/systemd-love/tree/master/net-misc/networkmanager
networkmanager-0.9.8.0.ebuild from systemd-love overlay works for me.
Removal of /etc/init.d/ scripts with USE="systemd" is a really bad idea, and makes the transition period to systemd needlessly difficult. I didn't expect when I put systemd into USE, in anticipation that I would try systemd at a later time, that it would break my NetworkManager install under OpenRC/SysVInit If you feel that this is a "necessary" requirement to make systemd work properly*, then please, don't just make it an unexpected change, add a USE="sysvinit" flag or something like that that controls the installation of those scripts, and if you *cant* get network-manager to "just work" under both, then advise the user of that in advance using REQUIRED_USE * Though I see other comments saying this is not the case, and it can be made to work under both satisfactorily, I'm just explaining my rationale in the event some other package has similar logic involved. TL;DR: USE="systemd" breaking sysvinit without warning -> not expected.
May be just add openrc USE flag?
Fabio, as you can check this with systemd (and also openrc), feel free to commit your fixed script to make both happy Thanks!
0.9.8.2-r3 should be ok
