Bug 447632 – media-gfx/splash-themes-livedvd-12.0 - init.d helper scripts are not executables

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alon Bar-Lev (RETIRED) 2012-12-17 19:35:04 UTC]

The tarball contains scripts:
 scripts/rc_init-pre
 scripts/rc_exit-post

Both are correctly executable, as required by /sbin/splsah-functions.sh:

        # Handle -pre event hooks
        if [ -x "/etc/splash/${SPLASH_THEME}/scripts/${event}-pre" ]; then
                /etc/splash/"${SPLASH_THEME}"/scripts/${event}-pre ${args}
        fi

        # Handle -post event hooks
        if [ -x "/etc/splash/${SPLASH_THEME}/scripts/${event}-post" ]; then
                /etc/splash/"${SPLASH_THEME}"/scripts/${event}-post ${args}
        fi

The ebuild copies all the files removing executable from the script, result in skipping these helper.

Do you want me to fix this?

Looks like they don't have problem with the patch

The ebuild wasn't revbumped. Why?
Unless people manually re-emerge splash-themes-livedvd, the helper scripts won't be executable, so people can still experience this issue.

I hoped maintainer will address the need. Anyway, I bumped it now.

Thanks!
