it did not install any init.d or conf.d files, and dumped core on me when I managed to prepare a config file. 1.9.11-r1 works all right Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: no /etc/init.d or /etc/conf.d file. Dumps core when I manage a config with no errors. Expected Results: keep the clean install in 1.9.11-r1. Don't dump core. workaround: stay in 1.9.11-r1
thanks for reporting the bug, interesting that no one picked this up until now. i've fixed the file installation, but unable to reproduce the core dump. can you attach a backtrace of some sort?
Nobody has noticed because people upgrading will not see /etc/init.d/dictd and /etc/conf.d/dictd removed (!cfgpro), which could itself be a bug in emerge. I just noticed when trying to upgrade to test. I had the old version. Now I'll try again with the new build and report.
Now it installs conf.d and init.d/dictd, but (here) sudo /etc/init.d/dictd restart gets [!!] in red in stop, does not kill the process (it needs sudo killall -TERM dictd and sudo /etc/init.d/dictd zap before I can't start it again)
are you able to run dictd outside of the init script and see if it reports any errors in the console before crashing?
My wrong, after a reboot it no longer happens So maybe the errors I was getting were due to some library stuck in memory or to dependencies in init.d scripts... Now it installs right and runs all right. the "restart" problem is no longer happening here. I'd close the bug as solved :-)
thanks for getting back to us
