I can't read the strace logs as they're not in English. Anyway, glad it's OK now.

After the next reboot error still exists.

Comment 9 Gino McCarty 2024-03-26 22:31:43 UTC

this problem still exists (sorta)

as far as I can tell what is happening is a dbus call (for hostname or locale) is spawning openrc-settingsd prior to your init.d startup of openrc-settings.d thus the pid in /run/openrc-settingsd.pid remains incorrect.

to fix this I moved openrc-settingd from default runlevel to boot runlevel in openrc.


good luck. (yes this is an old issue)

I am on version 1.4.0 FYI
