Description Justus Ranvier 2010-05-01 17:06:38 UTC

Neither the regular nor the live ebuilds install /etc/init.d/freenet, despite the postinstallation instructions of the package:

"1. Start freenet with /etc/init.d/freenet start."


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install freenet-0.7.5_p1245 or freenet-9999

Actual Results:  
/etc/init.d/freenet does not exist


A user that does not know how to start the daemon manually or roll his own init.d script would not be able to use the program at all.

I have no idea, why this would happen. So i need following infos:

-emerge --info
-complete build.log
-output of "emerge -pv freenet"

Comment 2 Justus Ranvier 2010-06-25 13:40:28 UTC

The machine where I originally saw this problem was using the Funtoo tree instead of the Gentoo tree. (I have both trees installed on a NFS share) For some reason the Funtoo tree is missing net-p2p/freenet/files/freenet but I'll take that up with them.

Since this is nothing i can fix in Gentoo, i will close this bug as cantfix.
