Good news:iputils-20200821 now has a xinetd file. Bad is the wrong path for tftpd Would it be better to install tftpd in /usr/sbin/ ? /etc/xinetd.d/tftp: server = /usr/sbin/tftpd >>> Install net-misc/iputils-20200821 into /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/image ninja -v -j2 -l0 -C /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/work/iputils-20200821-build install ninja: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/work/iputils-20200821-build' [1/17] /usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/meson --internal vcstagger ../iputils-s20200821/git-version.h.meson git-version.h s20200821 /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/work/iputils-s20200821 @VCS_TAG@ '(.*)' ' ' [1/2] /usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/meson install --no-rebuild Installing ping/ping to /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/image/usr/bin Installing tracepath to /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/image/usr/bin Installing arping to /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/image/usr/bin Installing tftpd/tftpd to /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/image/usr/bin Installing /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/work/iputils-20200821-build/tftpd/tftp to /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/image/etc/xinetd.d Running custom install script '/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/meson --internal gettext install --subdir=po --localedir=share/locale --pkgname=iputils' Installing /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/work/iputils-20200821-build/po/de.gmo to /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/image/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/iputils.mo >>> Completed installing net-misc/iputils-20200821 into /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/iputils-20200821/image * Final size of build directory: 2536 KiB (2.4 MiB) * Final size of installed tree: 304 KiB strip: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-strip --strip-unneeded -N __gentoo_check_ldflags__ -R .comment -R .GCC.command.line -R .note.gnu.gold-version /usr/bin/tracepath /bin/ping /bin/arping /usr/bin/tftpd
