Description Gary E. Miller 2015-02-03 21:16:13 UTC
/etc/services is missing the gpsd entry.  That should look like this:

gpsd  2947/tcp  gpsd # GPS Daemon request/response protocol
gpsd  2947/udp  gpsd # GPS Daemon request/response protocol

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. fgrep gpsd /etc/services

Note nothing found.


Expected Results:  
fgrep should return:

gpsd  2947/tcp  gpsd # GPS Daemon request/response protocol
gpsd  2947/udp  gpsd # GPS Daemon request/response protocol

Port 2947 was assigned in 2010, so Gentoo /etc/services getting a bit long in the tooth.

IETF has a csv file of assigned numbers here:

I could easily create a new /etc/services if someone would commit it to baselayout.
Comment 2 Gary E. Miller 2015-02-04 23:54:26 UTC
The subject now says "add gpsd" entries.  Would be nice to add ALL the missing entries?
Comment 3 Gary E. Miller 2016-03-04 21:24:13 UTC
Also missing:

Port 5280 Xvnc, Bidirectional-streams Over Synchronous HTTP (BOSH) (TCP)

The services listed in this bug have been added in commit id 4328a2f.
This will be in baselayout-2.3.
Also, I opened bug #592392 as a future project for automating the
updates of /etc/services.

Thanks.  Any ETA on 2.3?

There are a lot of long stabding missing services.  Automation is nice, but a quick once over would be good.
