Recent changes in baselayout 1.12 means that ifplugd no longer requires init.d scripts and as such its ebuild has been changed to not install them anymore. However, as the ebuild does not have a dependency on baselayout-1.12 if people are still using 1.11 they get no warnings or information that ifplugd will not work with this version, or how to fix the problem. There have already been several bugs raised because people can't work this out obviously: #156948 and #185100. Reproducible: Always Expected Results: If the ifplugd ebuilds are going to delete the init.d script files then they should depend on baselayout 1.12.
Fixed, thanks.
