Bug 342403 – sys-fs/udev-151-r4: /lib/udev/move_tmp_persistent_rules.sh needs bash

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Faustus 2010-10-23 23:47:39 UTC]

In /lib/udev/move_tmp_persistent_rules.sh:
  . /etc/init.d/functions.sh
which doesn't work with "#!/bin/sh" and /bin/sh not pointing to bash.

On that note, it would be really helpful if /etc/init.d/udev-postmount had some ebegin/eend. The reason for this bug was a pain to discover.

PS. Why not just put /lib/udev/move_tmp_persistent_rules.sh into 
/lib/udev/move_tmp_persistent_rules.sh ?

Into /etc/init.d/udev-postmount, that is.

Another comment: this issue apparently manifests in baselayout-1 (where functions.sh needs bash). See discussion in bug #342399.

The line ". /etc/init.d/functions.sh" itself is perfectly valid in /bin/sh.
As stated in comment #3, this seems to be a baselayout issue.
I think I should just move the file inside the init-script as suggested.

Included move_tmp_persistent_rules into udev-postmount.
