Description tuXXer 2003-04-22 04:22:49 UTC

When I try to boot gentoo Linux, I get the error message:

/sbin/runscript.sh integer expected

The Problem is the consolefont script in init.d. In this script at the first
"if" "then" reads a line retval=$ the line must reads retval=$?.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install console-utils with ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86"
2.reboot
3.

Actual Results:  
Error Message /sbin/runscript.sh integer expected

Expected Results:  
No error

Was already fixed in cvs:

    Fix type-o in /etc/init.d/consolefont (line 38 should be 'retval=$?').
    Thanks to  Matt Taylor <liverbugg@juno.com> (comment #6, bug #18344).
