Bug 469218 – sys-power/cpufrequtils-008-r3: "unexpected operator" error in /usr/libexec/cpufrequtils-change.sh

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

Thanks to the systemd crap which got added to this package it now emits nice error messages each time its openrc init script gets invoked:

# /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils start

Bugs happen, no need to be rude against systemd, systemd has nothing to do with this.
What is your default shell? I suspect it's not bash.
