Created attachment 496738 [details, diff] Patch for sys-process/runit-2.1.2-r1.ebuild sys-apps/openrc was added to runit's RDEPEND in response to #575478. However, this only affects the default runit/{1,2,3} scripts supplied by Gentoo. If custom scripts are used, or runit isn't used as init process at all, openrc isn't required. Hence, please make the openrc dependency optional. A patch to this effect is attached.
I am merging this into bug #611846 because it is part of the cleanup I am working on there, Making this a duplicate of that means you will be added to the cc on that bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 611846 ***
