Created attachment 303839 [details] changed --dir flag to --directory and it starts fine --dir is now --directory, so I changed it in /etc/init.d/puppetmaster and puppet starts fine
Created attachment 303841 [details, diff] patched /etc/init.d/puppetmaster --dir is now --directory. I patched the file and it starts fine
I confirm this. The bug is due to shortened option used in initialization file. openrc had only --directory option before current version so it worked fine. Current trunk added a second option (--directory-truncate) so the shortened option name became ambiguous. The attached patch works. Please push this upstream.
Fixed in cvs. thanks.
