• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 504128

Just what happened here:

~ # perl-cleaner --reallyall                                                                                                                                                   
/usr/sbin/perl-cleaner: line 31: /etc/init.d/functions.sh: No such file or directory                                                                                                
/usr/sbin/perl-cleaner: Could not source /etc/init.d/functions.sh!

and that file is part of openrc

What happens if someone has only systemd?

sys-apps/openrc is in @system for this very reason, see bug #373219

[Comment 2 William Hubbs 2014-01-28 19:54:44 UTC]

The previous comment is correct; please do not make openrc a depend of
perl-cleaner. The mentioned bug is tracking work on a separate script
perl-cleaner will be able to source instead of /etc/init.d/functions.sh.

[Comment 3 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) 2014-05-09 03:52:58 UTC]

Please either port perl-cleaner to use sys-apps/gentoo-functions, or add openrc as a dependency. Because at the moment, it's broken on pure systemd systems.

I think it might be resolved as duplicate of bug 504128 which is already marked as a blocker of bug 504116.
