Bug 174493 – baselayout-2 error in gendepends.sh

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Craig Andrews 2007-04-13 18:02:23 UTC]

Whenever a service is started or stopped, I get this error:

/lib64/rcscripts//sh/gendepends.sh: line 36: .: /etc/init.d/plugins: is a directory

I'm using sys-apps/baselayout-2.0.0_alpha1

And here's my emerge --info:

What on earth installed /etc/init.d/plugins as a directory?

./azupdater:

It seems that would be azureus.

If you run qfile /etc/init.d/plugins you will most likely see that nothing owns that directory. Getting that directory there is only possible if you at some point run azureus as root in /etc/init.d/. Azureus used to have a problem that it created the plugins directory to the current directory but that has been fixed for some time. You can check the directory creation time to see how long that directory has been there. Also please note this warning from Azureus:

        ewarn "Please, do not run azureus as root!"
        ewarn "Azureus has not been developed for multi-user environments!"

Alright - I'll just delete the directory. I must have done that sometime long long ago. Thank you for your help!
