Don't forget to post emerge --info. Also, openrc is NOT part of @system, service-manager is, and systemd satisfies it on systemd profiles at least, but can't see your emerge --info to see what profile you are on... If systemd, then this should be DUPLICATE of bug 375115

Do you have any of the following installed? sys-apps/systemd sys-process/runit virtual/daemontools
yes, I have virtual/daemontools installed and recorded in world file.
(In reply to Zhixu Liu from comment #5) > yes, I have virtual/daemontools installed and recorded in world file. after remove virtual/daemontools, problem disappear. But I do remember it didn't try to remove openrc before, it's wired. Also, why depclean still try to remove openrc? I mean, the warning is some kind of misleading.
OpenRC was removed from the system set in the commit for bug 511500: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=8ace3d16092a886de6d7eacc65f7a0d5593b95ac

This kind of thing is expected if openrc is masked somehow. Please check the output of this command to see if it's masked somehow: emerge -pv openrc

I don't think there's any new portage bug here, just an unfortunate consequence of how flexible this virtual is. Reminds me a lot of nano being depcleaned when "ed" gets installed, even though the end-user didn't intend to use ed as his main editor. I suspect that the vast majority of people installing daemontools don't actually intend to use it as init or the only service manager. This idea is a bit unconventional but what if we added a new default-off USE flag to virtual/daemontools that allowed users to explicitly opt-in to allowing daemontools to satisfy virtual/service-manager? Then virtual/service-manager would require this flag to be set on virtual/daemontools.

Yes, the behavior described in comment #8 is actually expected, since emerge tries very hard to eliminate redundant packages (openrc in this case). If daemontools gets pulled into the dependency graph and openrc does not, then emerge will automatically try to eliminate openrc. This behavior is intentional, as a means to eliminate redundant packages. > This idea is a bit unconventional but what if we added a new default-off USE > flag to virtual/daemontools that allowed users to explicitly opt-in to > allowing daemontools to satisfy virtual/service-manager? Then > virtual/service-manager would require this flag to be set on > virtual/daemontools. The flag would have to be in the virtual/service-manager ebuild. I think a reasonable solution is that anyone who wants to ensure that openrc remains installed should simply add it to their world file like this: emerge --noreplace openrc
(In reply to Zac Medico from comment #12) That was the same conclusion we (WilliamH and myself) reached in #gentoo-dev before I removed openrc from the @system set. I also proposed a solution involving USE flags, but we ultimately didn't feel it was worth the effort to solve this issue for the small number of people using daemontools/runit.
