Description Robert Cabrera 2011-09-05 08:50:03 UTC
I spent the last week installing a fresh Gentoo ~amd64 on my new laptop. Today I did my first sync which included an update to openrc-0.9.2. Now I get several startup error messages about "Use of the opts variable is deprecated and will be removed in the future. Please use extra_commands or extra_started_commands."

Checked in /var/messages log and find several errors including one for alsasound, wicd and samba.

Here's a pertinent snippet of the log:
Sep  5 02:08:06 odysseus acpid: waiting for events: event logging is off
Sep  5 02:08:06 odysseus /etc/init.d/alsasound[1532]: Use of the opts variable is deprecated and will be

Sep  5 02:08:08 odysseus acpid: client connected from 1461[0:0]

I hope this helps.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Reboot system after openrc-0.9.2 update
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Above mentioned error messages at startup.

Expected Results:  
No error messages.

The warnings are annoying, but scripts appear to be starting as they should.

Easily fixed with:

cd /etc/init.d

find -type f -name '*' -print | xargs  \
    perl -pi -e's/(\W|^)opts/$1extra_commands/g'

This is a really bad fix as opts= can become either extra_commands= _or_ extra_started_commands= depending on whether the extra option can only be run when the script was started before.
