I use sys-apps/baselayout-2.0.1 (if that is relevant). The problem is that whatever is specified in /etc/conf.d/rc (svcmount="YES/NO"), the svcfs still gets mounted as tmpfs (although default in not to do so). It does not hurt me or anyone else, it's just somehow strange. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Get recent Gentoo box 2. mount | grep svcdir 3. grep svcmount /etc/conf.d/rc 4. compare and embrace the holy cow Expected Results: If it says NO it should not happen=) As I have said, it does not hurt anyone currently. I have 3 gentoo boxes and each has this problem (although they are all very different), so I think emerge --info is not going to help here.
/etc/conf.d/rc is depreciated, baselayout-2 warns to migrate all setting to /etc/rc.conf and remove the file
If it is deprecated, then why it ends up on a system that was installed just 2 month ago? As it can be seen from baselayout changelog, the 2* versions are out for already a year.
