Created attachment 449730 [details] Suggested replacement init script Greetings, Upon encountering an IPv6-related issue with the init script provided by this ebuild, I took the liberty of rewriting it virtually from scratch. I created a pull request for it [1], but then I was informed that the maintainer does not have a GitHub account and thus I should create a bug instead, so here I am. In the pull request, I added a lot of line comments to both the original contents of the script and the code I suggest as a replacement so that the motivation behind each change is clear. Of course, please feel free to refute my comments. While obviously I am not going to insist on anyone signing up with GitHub, I think this publicly available link will make reviewing the suggested changes easy: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/2477/commits/019a5fab1920a755b86e75423032858281b56af0?diff=split For simplicity, I would suggest to first read my comments pertaining to the current version of the script (the left side) and then the explanations for selected parts of the replacement script (the right side). I have also attached the entire suggested replacement script to this bug. Please let me know what you guys think. [1] https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/2477/
Merged, thanks for bearing with me moving slowly!
