Bug 106657 – KDE 3.5-alpha1 changes lisa config files

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ernst de Haan 2005-09-20 02:26:00 UTC]

After emerging KDE 3.5-alpha1, portage told me to run etc-update. It proposed me to  
change 2 configuration files. Since I also have KDE 3.4.2 installed and the Gentoo  
design explicitly allows 2 KDE versions to be installed in parallel, I consider this a bug. 
 
This is the output I got: 
 
 * IMPORTANT: 2 config files in /etc need updating. 
 * Type emerge --help config to learn how to update config files. 
 
zaphod ernst # etc-update 
Scanning Configuration files... 
The following is the list of files which need updating, each 
configuration file is followed by a list of possible replacement files. 
1) /etc/init.d/lisa 
/etc/init.d/._cfg0000_lisa 
2) /etc/init.d/reslisa 
/etc/init.d/._cfg0000_reslisa 
 
This is the diff for the 1st file:

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge kde-3.5_alpha1 
 
Actual Results:  
See 'Details' 

Expected Results:  
No need to run etc-update except for adding new configuration files.

[Comment 1 Michael Gisbers 2005-10-04 07:10:38 UTC]

I can confirm this behavior. 
 
_alpha1 changes /etc/init.d/reslisa and /etc/init.d/lisa to work with KDE  
3.5 instead of 3.4. Both files are config-protected and so they have to be  
reported by etc-update.  
  
Or do you prefer to change subsystem-utils without notice? 
 
I think this behavior is ok. 

[Comment 2 Dan Armak (RETIRED) 2005-10-13 08:07:59 UTC]

Since we support multiple SLOTted kde installs we need to resolve this. 
 
Suggestion: install unslotted init script from a separate ebuild on which 
all lisa ebuilds will depend. Make it run the latest available version by 
default, overridable with a conf.d file. Objections? 

[Comment 3 Ernst de Haan 2005-10-14 12:25:33 UTC]

Dan: No objections from me. Sounds good. But then there should preferrably be 
an informational post-install message that explains the behaviour...

Stale bug, resolving.
