Description Narada Sage 2003-05-21 09:32:57 UTC
Going by bug 21376 bootsplash init dependencies require modification to comply
with baselayout 1.8.6.8-r1.  I quote a comment by azarah which explains it.

----
Yes, because bootsplash deps is just plain wrong, and because 1.8.6.8 have
better checking on dependencies, pick it up.

local have:  after *
bootsplash have:  after local

This cannot be.  A better solution (bit kludgy) is to have:

local:  after *
bootsplash: use local

Because USE override AFTER, local will start before bootsplash.  File
a bug or something with the bootsplash maintainer.

The exact error I get when booting with baselayout 1.8.6.8-r1 is:
Services 'bootsplash' and 'local' have circular dependencies of type 'iafter'.

Hello.  Just a short note to say that on your advice I changed bootsplash init to use local and now there are no bootsplash bootup error messages with baselayout 1.8.6.8-r1.  The only bootup error message I now get is the one below.  I believe others are also getting it on gentoo-user ML.

* Cleaning /var/lock, /var/run ...
xargs: environment is too large for exec

I confirm.
Shouldn't tad@gentoo.org receive this too?
He seems to be managing most other boostplash issues.

Fixed, new tar ball created, ebuild version bumped.
