Bug 236857 – net-misc/tor-0.2.0.30-r1 uses non-POSIX &> in initrd

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Martin Väth 2008-09-06 12:49:48 UTC]

The summary says all: files/tor.initd-r4 contains twice the bashism "&> ..."
If one uses "> ... 2>&1" instead, the init-file will be usable if e.g. /bin/sh
is a symlink to dash. I attach a corresponding patch.

The same problem is also in files/tor.initd-r3, but I do not attach an
analogous patch for that file.

Thanks for the report, fixed in CVS without revbump so remerge to get the change.
