About once a week I do an emerge sync followed by emerge update system then world. This morning completed that sequence then rebooted only to discover that /etc/init.d/rp-pppoe no longer worked. It was still wired in to run 'default' but couldn't because the adsl-start program is no longer to be found in /usr/sbin. I ran pppoe-connect by hand in a root window and that's working (with no /etc/ppp config files changed). I just "emerge rp-pppoe" and will check what's going on from there. I'm tagging as a major bug so someone looks it over quick. I assume it is a config/ebuild problem but not sure.
There's no init script any more, it's handled by baselayout. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=4&chap=3#doc_chap4
Might want to double check that the official gentoo doc is all in line for this change. When I googled I hit a number of links to gentoo doc. The main links I followed back to gentoo.org all of which referred to adsl-start, etc. so they're a notch or two behind this mod. Also, while the "emerge rp-pppoe" flagged the command name change, I don't recall it making reference to the need to modify /etc/conf.d/net, make link in /etc/init.d/ and rc-update del rp-pppoe default etc. emerge messages tend to get lost in the clutter of messages, but might be useful to find a way to flag this. Thanks.
