Description Erik Hahn 2008-12-30 19:30:06 UTC 
Having /bin/sh linked to dash I see this on every boot after "Starting Xinetd":

/lib/rc/sh/runscript.sh: 187: declare: not found

There aren't any apparent problems, though. Changing the shebang to
#!/bin/bash fixes it.
Comment 1 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-12-30 20:48:47 UTC 
/lib/rc/sh/runscript.sh doesn't contain any 'declare'.

Please reopen with the output of `emerge --info` and `emerge -ptv baselayout openrc`.
Comment 2 Erik Hahn 2008-12-30 22:15:10 UTC 
It's obviously Xinetd's init script that does contain declare

sys-apps/xinetd 2.3.14
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2008-12-31 09:06:46 UTC 
the declare magic in use to sanitize the env shouldnt really be needed anymore as ssd/openrc does it for us now
