Bug 446255 – net-misc/openconnect-4.07 - Init script cannot start due to missing pid dir.

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Matthew Schultz 2012-12-06 14:03:38 UTC]

If you're using a version of openrc 0.10 or later, /var/run and /run were migrated to a tmpfs which means any pid directories created by the ebuild will disappear on a reboot.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
After reboot: /etc/init.d/openconnect.vpn0 start 
Actual Results:  
pid directory does not exist

Expected Results:  
pid directory should be dynamically created by the init script when starting

openconnect-4.07-r1.ebuild

Removed /var/run/openconnect directory creation since it's no longer needed.

openconnect.init.in

New init script which dynamically created the openconnect pid directory.

Sorry, my portage tree was slightly behind, I don't have CVS access and don't know how to follow it using public access yet; corrected according to the new metadata.xml!
