The emerge output of sys-boot/plymouth says: * Messages for package sys-boot/plymouth-0.9.2: * Follow the following instructions to set up Plymouth: * https://dev.gentoo.org/~aidecoe/doc/en/plymouth.xml * * (Note: Above message is only printed the first time package is * installed. Please look at /usr/share/doc/plymouth-0.9.2/README.gentoo* * for future reference) * If you want initramfs builder with plymouth support, please emerge * sys-kernel/dracut or sys-kernel/genkernel-next[plymouth]. However, that URL 404's. I found this on the Gentoo Wiki: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Plymouth The output should probably get changed. Not a major show stopper or anything, but, I just thought I'd point it out. M. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge sys-boot/plymouth 2. Read the output
(sorry..) More specifically this: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Plymouth#Configuration So the URL makes the immediate jump to the actual config since the beginning of the article is about installing. If you're reading the emerge output, you've already installed it... ;-) M.
I create a PR to close this bug: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/5220 ciao luigi
