Description Stefan Briesenick (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-10 12:52:43 UTC
problem is:

newconfd ${FILESDIR}/openntpd.conf.d ntpd

"newconfd" has an ugly bug, that it only works, if ${D}/etc/conf.d already exists. It does NOT (!) create this dir and that's the reason why it silently fails. Always check the created files in the image-dir, when writing (and before releasing) an ebuild!

Solution:

add a "dodir /etc/conf.d" somewhere before the "newconfd".


Reproducible: Always
