rc-status -u reports all unused services as broken, even the started ones Actual Results: # rc-status -u Runlevel: unused crypto-loop [ broken ] hdparm [ broken ] nscd [ broken ] numlock [ broken ] rsyncd [ broken ] * You have some broken symbolic links as reported by the broken * status above. This can be fixed by removing the broken service * from its runlevel and re-adding it back using rc-update. Expected Results: the status should be reported correctly here an example from a box running baselayout-1.11.14-r8 # rc-status -u Runlevel: unused crypto-loop [ off ] dhcrelay [ off ] fancontrol [ off ] ip6tables [ off ] netmount [ off ] nfsmount [ off ] nscd [ off ] ntp-client [ off ] numlock [ off ] # emerge --info Portage 2.1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.4-r3, 2.6.16.21-xen0 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16.21-xen0 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2500+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r2 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://server2.s.lan/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/" LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" LINGUAS="de" MAKEOPTS="-s -j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://ftp.belnet.be/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 acl ncurses readline unicode elibc_glibc kernel_linux linguas_de userland_GNU" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
