Hi, please stabilize splashutils-1.5.4.4-r6. This is required to stabilize sys-power/suspend-1.0_p20150810 since current stable depends on vulnerable libgcrypt version.
This package has only been made stable in the past for amd64 x86 Arches please make stable =media-gfx/splashutils-1.5.4.4-r6 Arches: amd64 x86
(In reply to Ian Delaney from comment #1) > This package has only been made stable in the past for amd64 x86 This will be perfectly fine. While r6 still has some bugs open, this is a clear improvement over r5.
amd64 : ok (builds) Built without USE="hardened" Couldn`t test functionality.
CC back amd64 when bug 568976 is resolved
Arches please stabilize =media-gfx/splashutils-1.5.4.4-r7.
amd64 stable
@x86, ping here!

Hi there, I think, I've found an issue with the (latest) Splashutils package related to the changes of "/etc/mtab", which has become a simple link to "/proc/self/mounts" a few months before to be more sane. But everytime the system is starting with a bootsplash, the link gets lost and a file "/etc/mtab" is created instead leading sometimes to inconsistent entries in mtab again. The problem seems to be the sed call in line 497 (splashutils-1.5.4.4/src/libfbsplash.c): /* Clear a stale mtab entry that might have been created by the initscripts. */ system("/bin/sed -i -e '\\#"FBSPLASH_CACHEDIR"# d' /etc/mtab"); Removing this line and recompiling Splashutils helps (at least for those, who have configured "/etc/init.d/mtab" with "mtab_is_file=no" (which is the default anyway in Gentoo AFAIK). Regards, Marco
