Bug 322083 – sys-power/nut-2.4.3: /etc/init.d/nut.powerfail: keyword: command not found

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description DEMAINE Benoît-Pierre, aka DoubleHP 2010-05-30 14:04:09 UTC]

Sometimes, not every day, some times at boot time (or not), or shutdown (or not), I get this error message:

uranus ~ # /etc/init.d/munin-node restart
 * Caching service dependencies ...
/var/lib/init.d/depcache: line 2239: keyword: command not found
 *  Can't find service 'mount-ro' needed by 'nut.powerfail';  continuing  [ ok ]

I don't know why munin depends on NUT (and this is offtopic); I don't know if the bug is on nut depending on non existing service, or in keyword not found.

And I don't understand why I get this message only some times. Today, I had not it at boot, i got it now.

munin doesn't depend on Nut, its just that you've installed nut since last running any /etc/init.d script. The system caches these scripts and checks their syntax as it goes.

You can run this caching by hand: depscan.sh -u and you should see the error again.

Rich.

is this normal ?

Where is your emerge --info?

What version of baselayout are you running? That script is designed for baselayout2.

Your summary is wrong, the script DOES correctly depend on mount-ro.
$ grep mount-ro /etc/init.d/nut.powerfail 
	need mount-ro

Created attachment 235789 [details]
/tmp/emerge--info

sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.13

my old summary was not pointing the script, but, respecting this bugzilla habits, was poiting the atom/ebuild name-version. I meant that, if the ebuild should include a dep that is, for me, not actually in the ebuild. And especially, if a script "generated" by the ebuild depends on whatever, the ebuild must depend on the "other ebuild that will provide it".

So, the problem may be related to an unmasked nut ? grep says:
/etc/portage/package.keywords/autounmask-nut:5:=sys-power/nut-2.4.3 ~amd64
what may be the explanation you are looking for. I needed to unmask =sys-power/nut-2.4.3 on May 25 09:26:27; but I forgot why. Deep analysis of my logs could help me remind, but I think you don't bother.

Ok, i'll modify that script to not be used with baselayout1.

[Comment 6 Robin Johnson 2010-06-17 19:39:18 UTC]

Fixed in CVS.
