Description Adrian Gligor 2003-09-07 07:08:10 UTC

during init, the environment is filled up with a lot of funtions defined in the 
init scripts. every script adds its functions, and the environment gets bigger. 
this is related to bug 21438 (xargs error), but this time it affects hotplug. 
hotplug complains like this:
* Starting USB and PCI hotplugging...
modules.usbmap unparsabale line
.
modules.usbmap unparsabale line
.
[DUMP] <- here it dumps the whole environment, which is huge, and delays startup 
about two minutes. hotplug works, only the error message is disturbing


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Gentoo 1.4
2. Set up hotplug/genkernel
3. Do install only GRP binaries, no source packages
4. boot and watch

Actual Results:  
the bug occured
hotplug actually works

Expected Results:  
* Starting USB and PCI hotplugging... [ok]
and no dump

*  sys-apps/baselayout
