Stable net-misc/vde-2.3.2-r2 init script /etc/init.d/vde still uses /sbin/runscript instead of /sbin/openrc-run.
The files in my portage tree already start with: #!/sbin/openrc-run # Copyright 1999-2013 Gentoo Foundation # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 so ... see files/vde.init Last change Feb 28, 2017.
To clarify, the file i synced with gentoo repo's in /usr/portage/...
This was fixed over 1 year ago: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/net-misc/vde/files/vde.init?id=7b256fbe4acd6881cf54f7c0177be15bffff9423 If you haven't re-emerge vde since then, your init wasn't updated. All you need to do is re-emerge vde.
