Description grey dot 2013-12-29 22:43:37 UTC

Several scripts from /lib/rc require uniq command, which might be unavailable during boot due to /usr not mounted. I know this is unsupported, but the fix is kinda trivial.

Reproducible: Always

This has been fixed in OpenRC git, we now use sort -u instead of uniq,
so there is no need to worry about moving uniq.

`sort -u` is the way to go imo.  there's rarely a need for actual `uniq`.
