Bug 65500 – depcache broken

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Justin 2004-09-27 01:36:49 UTC]

I did an emerge -U world tonight, and it may have broken depcache- which despite being familar with linux I have no idea how this dohicky dependency tracking thing you guys have works- There is the possibilities that unmerging the sysvinit package caused this- I emerge'd baselayout tonight which I had to unmerge sysvinit to do this (I was trying to get the net scripts to recognize the ip style setup)


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge any package
2. env-update
3. depscan.sh / depcache /etc

Actual Results:  
env-update

I have tried both stable and unstable baselayout, also AFAIK sysvinit and
baselayout should not conflict with each other? however at this time they do.

I am not sure what all you would like to know- please inform me.

Created attachment 41126 [details]
depcache

Updated error:
(also I made a mistake since then when adding my own init script for apache-
thus the error there)

chances are it's because you have a mistake in one of the init.d scripts or a config file

try running it through `strace -f -eopen -o out` and verify that all the files it reads are correct (no syntax errors)

one way you could test this is (you should get no errors):
$ bash
$ source /etc/init.d/*
$

get back to us

Ooops - yes, all apologies. Someone in the hardened channel on freenode took a look for me, and despite my protests- it seems that somewhere in one of the upgrades one of the init scripts got borked. I fixed that, and naturally the problem went away. Thanks.
