Summary: baselayout RDEPENDS on >=procps-3.2.2
Product: Gentoo Linux Reporter: Erik Bergmann <erik.bergmann>
Component: [OLD] baselayoutAssignee: Gentoo's Team for Core System packages <base-system>
Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE    
Severity: normal    
Priority: High    
Version: unspecified   
Hardware: All   
OS: Linux   
Whiteboard:
Package list:
Runtime testing required: ---

Description Erik Bergmann 2005-08-04 04:34:33 UTC
In /etc/init.d/bootmisc baselayout uses sysctl with the option -q. As you can see
on http://procps.sourceforge.net/changelog.html this option was added in 3.2.2.
Therefore baselayout should depend on >=procps-3.2.2.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Actual Results:  
This
error: Unknown parameter "-q"
usage:  sysctl [-n] [-e] variable ...
        sysctl [-n] [-e] [-q] -w variable=value ...
        sysctl [-n] [-e] -a
        sysctl [-n] [-e] [-q] -p <file>   (default /etc/sysctl.conf)
        sysctl [-n] [-e] -A
occures during booting


At least baselayout-1.11.3 and baselayout-1.12.0_pre3 are affected.

Your system is outdated. All procps versions in portage are >3.2.2
Comment 2 Erik Bergmann 2005-08-04 05:12:49 UTC
Indeed...
But I think (as a dial-in slave) Gentoo should work without emerge system or
emerge world.
