5 17 Jul 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
6
7 Add additional entries to /etc/services to support cyrus-imapd, thanks
8 to raker@gentoo.org.
9
10 Update /etc/init.d/consolefont to resolve bug #4968. This fixes a
11 problem with non 7bit ascii symbols.
12
13 Updated /etc/init.d/checkfs to detect if lvm is already active.
14 This should resolve bug #3613.
15
16 5 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
17
18 Add "usb" group, gid 85. Move "sshd" user and group to 22. Move
19 "games" user and group to 35
20
21 3 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
22
23 Update Copyright displayed at boot, thanks to Sascha Schwabbauer
24 (aka cybersystem). Updated /sbin/rc for this.
25
26 30 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
27
28 Update /etc/skel/.bashrc to update the window title of X terminals
29 that supports it. Closes bug #4232.
30
31 26 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
32
33 Add sshd user and group. Updated /etc/passwd and /etc/group for this.
34
35 Update /etc/inputrc to resolve bug #2599.
36
37 20 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
38
39 Add /opt/bin to $PATH and $ROOTPATH, closing bug #3603. Modified
40 /etc/env.d/00basic for this.
41
42 Add some new daemon stop and pid detection stuff to /sbin/functions.sh.
43 Nothing official, but I spent enouth time on it not to want to loose it :)
44
45 Fixed a bug in /sbin/functions.sh that caused rc-scripts run as cron jobs
46 to give output to stderr. This was caused by a call to "stty", which when
47 run without a attatched terminal, have this effect. Basically just pipe
48 stderr to /dev/null.
49
50 5 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
51
52 Add /usr/local/share/man to $MANPATH (/etc/env.d/00basic), resolving
53 bug #3363
54
55 26 May 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
56
57 Update /etc/init.d/netmount not to try and mount NFS filesystems
58 if portmap was not started. This is to stop "hang" problems for
59 new users who do not add portmap to the default runlevel. See
60 bug #2555.
61
62 Add the video4linux stuff to /etc/devfsd.conf. Resolves bug #2015.
63
64 19 May 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
65
66 Move $EDITOR from /etc/profile to /etc/env.d/00basic.
67
68 13 May 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
69
70 Change the homes of user "at" and "cron" in /etc/passwd, as
71 they moved to /var/spool/cron...
72
73* rc-scripts 1.3.5 (12 May 2002)
74
75 12 May 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
76
77 Make slight modifications to /sbin/depscan.sh to improve speed (about
78 1 second on a celeron 633).
79
80 Finally fix /sbin/runscript.sh to properly handle interdependencies
81 between types need/use and before/after on runlevel change. I can
82 actually kick myself for previous implementations, as this fix simplifies
83 things a lot, and is almost 30 lines of code less!
84
85 Change /etc/init.d/netmount not to fail if all mounts are not mounted.
86 It rather just exit with a warning, as I think most people have like
87 me mounts that are to boxes that are not always up.
88
89 Resolve bug #2439 (should not use try with the dd command for ramdisk
90 stuff). Also increase the number of inodes used for the ramdisk to
91 fix "out of space" errors. Updated /sbin/rc for this.
92
93 10 May 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
94
95 Resolve bug #2505 ... /sbin/rc-envupdate.sh should not use
96 backup files to generate /etc/profile.env.
97
98 Resolve bug #2489 and #2175. Modified /etc/init.d/net.eth0
99 for this.
100
101 6 May 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
102
103 Fixed /sbin/rc-envupdate.sh to only use the $KDEDIR of the highest
104 /etc/env.d/ file. Same for $QTDIR.
105
106 5 May 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
107
108 Add /etc/DIR_COLORS as it is no longer shipped with fileutils,
109 and is needed for some fixes.
110
111 28 April 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
112
113 Update /etc/rc.conf to be more clear and state that you should
114 remove consolefont from startup if you do not use it. Should
115 resolve bug #2174.
116
117 26 April 2002; Donny Davies <woodchip@gentoo.org> passwd, group :
118
119 Added user/group apache with uid/gid 81.
120
121 25 April 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
122
123 Remove the "-net" from the line setting the default gateway
124 in /etc/init.d/net.eth0. Thanks to Peter W. Michaleas for
125 noting this.
126
127 24 April 2002; Donny Davies <woodchip@gentoo.org> rc.conf :
128
129 Remove NFSSERVER from rc.conf since it's now covered in /etc/conf.d/nfs
130 which is installed with the nfs-utils package. Also tidied up some
131 really old, leftover junk like the non-supported stuff from rc5.
132 Closes #1754.
133
134 23 April 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
135
136 Remove creation of /var/run/utmpx from bootmisc again. Seems
137 other people have wierd problems.
138
139* rc-scripts 1.3.4 (21 April 2002)
140
141 21 April 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
142
143 Add /sbin/rc-envupdate.sh to speedup updating of /etc/profile.env,
144 and /etc/csh.env. Update /etc/init.d/bootmisc to use this.
145
146 Implement the status commandline argument. Updated /sbin/runscript.sh
147 and /sbin/rc-help.sh for this.
148
149 Fix /sbin/depscan.sh to honour NEED and USE overriding BEFORE
150 and AFTER.
151
152 12 April 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
153
154 Update /etc/init.d/bootmisc to create /var/run/utmpx. This
155 is needed, else /usr/bin/newgrp segfault.
156
157 11 April 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
158
159 Update /etc/skel/.bash_profile to make it tcsh compadible.
160 Thanks to Väinö Järvelä for this fix.
161
162 Update /etc/profile to also set the PS? variables if $SHELL
163 is set to /bin/sh. This should make prompt colours in
164 bootstrap work again.
165
166 Move LVM stuff to checkfs to ensure that they get fscked.
167 This resolves bug #1552.
168
169* rc-scripts 1.3.3 (5 April 2002)
170
171 5 April 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
172
173 Move /etc/init.d/{depscan.sh,runscript.sh,functions.sh} to /sbin.
174 This is done to try and ensure system integrity.
175
176 1 April 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
177
178 Add quotes to the "export INPUTRC=/etc/inputrc" line to resolve bug #1391.
179
180 Add a error message to /etc/init.d/consolefont, resolving bug #1415.
181
182 Add a bash check to the code that sets the prompt, fixing bug #1078.
183
184* rc-scripts 1.3.2 (24 Mar 2002)
185
186 24 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
187
188 Resolve bug #1274. Updated /etc/init.d/hostname and /etc/init.d/bootmisc
189 for this.
190
191 With the "before" and "after" stuff, recursion levels was getting too high,
192 and with some cases, things just plain did not work as it should. Reworked
193 things to to lower the levels of recursion and get the order right. Updated
194 /etc/init.d/runscript.sh for this.
195
196 Fixed a problem in /sbin/rc and /etc/init.d/runscript.sh where
197 ${svcdir}/softlevel did not always exist, but runscript.sh tried to open it.
198
199 Enhance --quiet support. Updated /etc/init.d/functions.sh for this.
200
201 Remove /etc/pwdb.conf, as pwdb already install a copy of this.
202
203 Remove /etc/pam.d/{rexec,rlogin,rsh} as pam already install this.
204
205 Added $INPUTRC to /etc/profile, since too many people keep on bugging me,
206 and it seems it has fallen now to my discression.
207
208* rc-scripts 1.3.1 (23 Mar 2002)
209
210 23 March 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: init.d/net.eth0: fix for
211 DHCP lease release from Jim Nutt.
212
213 23 March 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: rolling a new release
214 since there are a lot of important bug fixes in here that are needed.
215
216 23 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
217
218 Resolve bug #1292.
219
220 Remove the extra 'depmod -a' in /etc/init.d/modules, thanks to
221 Spidler.
222
223 21 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
224
225 Update /sbin/rc to fix a 'cat mounts' instead of the correct
226 version, 'cat /proc/mounts'.
227
228 19 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
229
230 Add initial support for the --quiet flag that suppress output.
231
232 18 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
233
234 Remove the 'try' from 'try /etc/init.d/depscan.sh' in /sbin/rc
235 as not all errors by depscan.sh is critical. It should be
236 reworked to do better error handeling.
237
238 14 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
239
240 Fix the GID and UID of nobody and nogroup in /etc/passwd and
241 /etc/group to match those of Debian, FBSD and others. Thanks
242 to those who reported it, and Woodchip for looking up the
243 proper values.
244
245 Update /etc/init.d/net.eth0 to properly down DHCP interfaces.
246 This resolves bug #1150, thanks to Paul Fleischer.
247
248 11 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
249
250 Updated /etc/init.d/functions.sh not to use /usr/bin/basename,
251 as some users have /usr on seperate partition which is not
252 mounted when depscan.sh is run the first time.
253
254 Updated the checking for more than one service providing the
255 same virtual function in /etc/init.d/depscan.sh. It should
256 be working now, and this also fix a problem that when there is no
257 service providing a virtual, counter was used uninitialized.
258
259* rc-scripts 1.3.0 (10 March 2002)
260
261 10 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
262
263 Resolved bug #1021; updated /etc/init.d/consolefont for this.
264
265 Resolved bug #1029; updated /etc/init.d/net.eth0 for this.
266
267 Resolved bug #990; updated /etc/init.d/net.eth0, /etc/init.d/netmount
268 and /etc/init.d/localmount for this.
269
270 Lots of form/syntax cleanups, most things should be more
271 consistant now. Fixed fail detection/return values of lots of
272 scripts.
273
274 Lots of cleanup/fixes in the three main scripts behind our
275 rc-system, /sbin/rc, /etc/init.d/depscan.sh, /etc/init.d/runscript.sh
276
277 Fix a bug regarding a invalid $PATH for portage if /etc/init.d/functions.sh
278 is sourced in a ebuild.
279
280 Fix a bug that our rc-script wrapper introduced: Global variables
281 in scripts no longer worked. Updated /etc/init.d/runscript.sh for
282 this.
283
284 Implemented more error checking for the main startup code in /sbin/rc.
285 Also fixed try() for mounting /proc (maybe all mount commands).
286 The function worked fine in a simulated test, but in real life failed
287 to detect a error when mounting /proc (remember to thank Grant for
288 his UserMode ebuilds, and Guide).
289
290* rc-scripts 1.2.9 (6 March 2002)
291
292 6 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
293
294 General form updates and some piping fixes.
295
296 Updated /etc/inittab, /etc/init.d/xdm and /etc/X11/startDM.sh
297 to fix a problem where startDM.sh would be respawned repeatedly
298 if xdm was not in the default runlevel.
299
300* rc-scripts 1.2.8 (4 March 2002)
301
302 4 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
303
304 Add /etc/init.d/xdm, /etc/X11/startDM.sh and updated /etc/inittab
305 to fix the "dead key" problem we had with xdm/gdm/kdm. We should
306 move them to the xfree ebuild later on when things settles down.
307
308 Added some sanity checks to /sbin/rc, /etc/init.d/runscripts.sh.
309
310 Added a basic $PATH to /etc/init.d/functions.sh to fix a problem
311 where we had a invalid $PATH on boot in some cases.
312
313 Updated /etc/init.d/keymap and /etc/init.d/consolefont to work with
314 the new sys-apps/kbd package.
315
316* rc-scripts 1.2.7 (3 March 2002)
317
318 3 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
319
320 Fixed the problem of rc-scripts trying to start/stop a service multiple
321 times if it fails to do so. Updated /etc/init.d/runscript.sh and /sbin/rc
322 for this.
323
324 Fixing some variable declarations in /etc/init.d/runscript.sh caused
325 /etc/init.d/net.lo to fail on stop ($IFACE was set invalid). Fixed
326 this.
327
328 Added caching of the "depend() { need foo; } " lines, and updated
329 /etc/init.d/depscan.sh to touch the actual files less. This should
330 speedup dependancy caching a lot, especially on slow machines.
331
332 Updated /etc/passwd to have users with no shell defined, use /bin/false
333 for security.
334
335 Update /etc/fstab to mention /dev/shm since we dont mount it anymore.
336
337 1 March 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
338
339 Added a wrapper for sourcing the rc-scripts to eliminate syntax errors.
340 Thanks to Karl Trygve Kalleberg (aka karltk) for the idea. Updated
341 /etc/init.d/depscan.sh, /etc/init.d/functions.sh and
342 /etc/init.d/runscript.sh for this (added wrap_rcscript() function).
343
344 Removed stopping of dependant services that have current service as
345 a 'use'dependancy ... should be less confusing now.
346 Updated /etc/init.d/runscript.sh for this.
347
348 28 Feb 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
349
350 Add /etc/conf.d/local.start and /etc/conf.d/local.stop for adding any misc
351 programs to startup. This should pretty much have /etc/init.d/ static,
352 except for baselayout updates, etc.
353
354 27 Feb 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
355
356 In some wierd cases, a redundent /dev/.devfsd on a unmounted /dev can cause
357 problems. Fixed this in /sbin/rc.
358
359 Added the patches from Grant Goodyear (aka g2boojum) to enable us to
360 use a ramdisk to store the contents of ${svcdir}. Updated /sbin/rc,
361 /etc/init.d/functions.sh and /etc/init.d/checkroot for this.
362
363 26 Feb 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
364
365 Fix my brain dead update of the 25th. It really should keep
366 "gentoo=nodevfs" in mind. Also added 'get_bootparam()' to help in
367 retrieving kernel options. Updated /etc/init.d/functions.sh,
368 /etc/init.d/checkroot and /sbin/rc for this.
369
370 Updated /etc/init.d/consolefont to work without devfs as well.
371
372 When rebooting or shutting down, a service should not fail to stop
373 if a service it depends on, fails. Updated /etc/init.d/runscript.sh
374 for this.
375
376 25 Feb 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>:
377
378 Added a check if /dev is mounted when creating entries for /etc/mtab.
379 This should solve a invalid entry or /dev being mounted even with
380 'gentoo=nodevfs' option. Updated /etc/init.d/checkroot for this.
381
382 17 Feb 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: Made "xfs" the default
383 filesystem in /etc/fstab (from ReiserFS) and removed "notail" option (it's
384 just in a comment now)
385
386 17 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
387
388 Mmore fixes to 'after' and 'before', updated /etc/init.d/runscript.sh for
389 this. This should fix services not getting started in the correct order
390 in a tight loop, services getting stopped out of order, and some other
391 sanity checks. Updated rc-script.sh for updated help.
392
393 15 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
394
395 Update /etc/profile to resolve bug #588. Reimplemented things a bit,
396 and added the 'after' type. 'before' and 'after' will only work currently
397 for a change of runlevel. Updated /etc/init.d/depscan.sh,
398 /etc/init.d/runscript.sh and /sbin/rc for this.
399
400 13 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
401
402 Add some more entries to /etc/devfsd.conf to make alsa users life
403 easier ... thanks Tod.
404
405 12 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
406
407 Some more cleanups to /etc/init.d/depscan.sh and /etc/init.d/runscript.sh.
408
409 Fixed some services not starting again when restarting a service.
410 Seems simple is still the best way.
411
412 Fixed some other problems created with feature additions and cleanups.
413
414 11 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
415
416 General cleanups to /etc/init.d/depscan.sh and /etc/init.d/runscript.sh.
417
418 Added 'before *' to /etc/init.d/checkroot to make sure it gets
419 started first.
420
421 Added 'use *' to /etc/init.d/local to make sure it gets started
422 last.
423
424 10 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
425
426 Fixed /sbin/rc to stop a service on change of runlevel if it is
427 in 'use' by another service.
428
429 Added the 'provide' depend type for creating virtual services.
430 Updated /etc/init.d/depscan.sh for this.
431
432 Added the 'before' depend type. This is more for changing the
433 order services start in. Updated /etc/init.d/depscan.sh and
434 /etc/init.d/functions.sh for this.
435
436 Updated /etc/init.d/depscan.sh to work with '*' as argument for
437 dependancy types. This can be used with 'use' and 'before' to
438 start a script last or first respectively.
439
440 Added save_options() and get_options() to /etc/init.d/functions.sh
441 for saving misc settings between startup/shutdown. Updated
442 /etc/init.d/net.eth0 to use these and properly down virtual
443 interfaces.
444
445 6 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
446
447 Updated both /etc/init.d/bootmisc and /etc/init.d/keymaps to be quiet
448 on no errors.
449
450* rc-scripts 1.2.6 (6 Feb 2002)
451
452 2 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
453
454 Updated /etc/net.eth0 to specify the gateway device via the $gateway
455 variable (something like gateway="eth0/192.168.0.1").
456
457 2 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
458
459 Added rc-script /etc/init.d/numlock, for enabling numlock at boot.
460
461 29 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
462
463 Hopefully the last fix to /etc/init.d/netmount to umount cleanly. This fix
464 implements a retry if not successful the first time, and will kill
465 processess using the mount. Also small type-o fix to /etc/init.d/halt.sh.
466
467 27 Jan 2002: Donny Davies (woodchip@gentoo.org): security fix to
468 /etc/pam.d/sshd,login,chsh: added pam_shells.so to the stack.
469 Fixed /etc/passwd,group for user/group mysql.
470
471 27 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org): added charset
472 map file support to /etc/init.d/consolefont and the setting to
473 /etc/rc.conf.
474
475 25 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org): fixed dircolors
476 in skel files to support both versions of dircolors.
477
478 23 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org): fixed bug
479 in the restart stuff of /etc/init.d/runscript.sh that caused
480 a restart of a 'net' service not to restart services again
481 that depended on it.
482
483* rc-scripts 1.2.5 (20 Jan 2002)
484
485 20 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org): updated
486 /etc/init.d/net.eth0 to 'use' pcmcia.
487
488 8 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org): added '--sh' to
489 the dircolors command in /etc/skel/.bash_profile to handle cases
490 where bash do not export $SHELL.
491
492 6 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org): updated
493 /etc/init.d/runscripts.sh, /etc/init.d/net.eth0, /etc/conf.d/net and
494 removed /etc/init.d/net.eth0-dhcp to reflect a new 'bsd-ish' config
495 scheme for the net.eth* scripts.
496
497 6 Jan 2002: Donny Davies (woodchip@gentoo.org): Removed email address
498 from manpages; no need for that..
499
500 5 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org): fix type-o in
501 /etc/devfsd.conf; had 'dvd' in the cdrw stuff.
502
503* rc-scripts 1.2.4 (30 Dec 2001)
504
505 30 Dec 2001: Daniel Robbins (drobbins@gentoo.org): Changed default umask
506 back to 022 as it should be.
507
508 30 Dec 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org): Updated
509 /etc/init.d/checkfs to return 0 if the fs was successfully repaired.
510
511 29 Dec 2001; Donny Davies (woodchip@gentoo.org):
512 sort -t: -k3,3 -n /etc/passwd,group. Ahhhh :))
513
514 28 Dec 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org);
515
516 Updated /etc/init.d/depscan.sh to store info about missing dependancies
517 of type 'need' in ${svcdir}/broken. Also updated /etc/init.d/runscript.sh
518 to use this when starting a script ('need' dependancies is critical for
519 startup). Added the broken() function to /etc/init.d/runscript.sh
520 to list the missing dependancies.
521
522 Updated /etc/init.d/runscript.sh for svc_start() to have better error
523 checking.
524
525 Updated /etc/init.d/functions.sh with ewend(), which is the same as
526 eend(), but print a warning on error, not a error. Updated
527 /etc/init.d/checkroot and /etc/init.d/checkfs to use this function.
528
529 27 Dec 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org);
530
531 Update /sbin/runscript.c to run /etc/init.d/rc-help.sh if no arguments
532 is passed to a rc-script.
533
534 Added /etc/init.d/rc-help.sh, simple script that prints out help for
535 the rc-scripts.
536
537 25 Dec 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org);
538
539 Update /etc/init.d/shutdown.sh and /etc/init.d/reboot.sh not to force the
540 halt and reboot. This fixes a problem where / was not unmounted properly
541 in some cases.
542
543 24 Dec 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
544
545 Move $svcdir to to /etc/init.d/functions.sh, and update
546 /etc/init.d/runscript.sh and /etc/init.d/depscan.sh for this
547
548 Modified /etc/init.d/runscript.sh to also restart the services that
549 depend on a service if that service is restarted. Enhanced the
550 restart function to be able to have custom restart() functions in
551 rc-scripts. The custom restart() have to use svc_stop() and
552 svc_start() to restart the service.
553
554 Add a pause function to /etc/init.d/runscript.sh. It will basically
555 stop a service without stopping the services that depends on that
556 service.
557
558 Add a pause function to /etc/init.d/runscript.sh. It will basically stop a
559 service without stopping the services that depends on that service.
560
561* rc-scripts 1.2.3 (18 Dec 2001)
562
563 16 Dec 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
564
565 Moved the stuff from /sbin/init (old) to /sbin/rc (basically drop the
566 init wrapper we used).
567
568 Some cleanups: take out the shm resize comment;
569
570 remove the $wrongmount;
571
572 remove the mountshm() function and insert it directly
573 where needed;
574
575 remove the setting of $PATH as /sbin/init already do
576 this for us.
577
578 Added the if statement to detect if it is the first time the 'boot'
579 runlevel is executed (if [ "$RUNLEVEL" = "S" ] && [ "$argv1" = "boot" ]).
580 $RUNLEVEL is a env var set by /sbin/init.
581
582 Also added functionality to detect if the kernel have DEVFS support
583 compiled in; seems new users thinks devfs is unstable and as they do
584 not always read the docs, it does not get compiled in ;/ Should
585 make live for us a bit easier.
586
587 14 Dec 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
588
589 Fixed /sbin/rc to kill a cosmetic bug in the part that stops all
590 the unneeded services.
591
592* rc-scripts 1.2.2 (8 Dec 2001)
593
594 10 Dec 2001; Added a localhost entry in /etc/hosts.
595
596 8 Dec 2001; Donny Davies (woodchip@gentoo.org): Added start-stop-daemon.c
597 to rc-scripts/sbin source. Moved rc-scripts/init.d/runscript.c to
598 rc-scripts/sbin/runscript.c. Added manpage for start-stop-daemon.
599 Start-stop-daemon is moved here from sysvinit by the way. There is stuff
600 in this ChangeLog that needs to be removed! Like the changes to hosts,
601 profile. /etc/{passwd,group} have minor UID and GID type fixes for
602 users ftp, postgres, xfs. Tweaked tarball.sh to not include CVS
603 directories.
604
605 29 Nov 2001; Donny Davies (woodchip@gentoo.org): Added a man directory
606 to rc-scripts. Checked in two manpages there, one for modules.autoload.5
607 and one for update-modules.8. These were adapted from Debian. Updated
608 tarball.sh to include the new man directory. Updated baselayout to install
609 these manpages. Slightly tweak the /etc/modules.autoload comments.
610
611 28 Nov 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
612
613 Updated /sbin/init to work correctly with the 'gentoo=nodevfs' option,
614 and cleaned out old code.
615
616 Updated /etc/init.d/bootmisc with additional lock files to clean.
617
618 27 Nov 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
619
620 Updated /etc/init.d/depscan.sh for a virtual 'use' depend, called 'logger'
621 that can be used for services that needs to have a logger started before
622 they are started. Updated /etc/conf.d/basic with $SYSLOGGER that is used
623 to define what loggers the 'logger' depend represent.
624
625 26 Nov 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
626
627 Updated /etc/passwd and /etc/group with minor fixes to pass pwck
628 and grpck.
629
630 25 Nov 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
631
632 Changed umask in /etc/profile for the user to 077 for security.
633
634 Added a stop() function to /etc/init.d/clock. Also removed uneeded
635 'source /etc/rc.conf' line.
636
637 Updated /etc/init.d/hostname to set the hostname to 'localhost' if
638 /etc/hostname is invalid.
639
640 Updated /sbin/init to move the entries in /lib/dev-state to /dev before
641 running devfsd, as it did still not save settings properly. Also removed
642 old /dev-state/compat stuff.
4 643
5 25 Nov 2001; ncsd, the name service cache daemon script, has been removed 644 25 Nov 2001; ncsd, the name service cache daemon script, has been removed

10 removed notail from the ext2 boot partition, other cleanups. 649 removed notail from the ext2 boot partition, other cleanups.
11 650
12 25 Nov 2001; Fixed init.d/clock script to work in UTC mode. 651 25 Nov 2001; Fixed init.d/clock script to work in UTC mode.
652
653 24 Nov 2001; Martin Schlemmer (azarah@gentoo.org):
13 654
655 Added /etc/devfsd.conf and updated /sbin/init to use a new scheme for saving
656 /dev permissions. Also moved /dev-state to /lib/dev-state which is a more
657 standard location.
658
659 Fixed a ugly bug in /etc/init.d/depscan.sh. If a service depended on
660 itself, calling depscan.sh or changing runlevels cause a tempory effect
661 similar to a 'mini fork bomb'. Afterwards the depends was broken, and
662 changing runlevels did not want to work.
663
664 Updated /etc/init.d/halt.sh to terminate and display message for devfsd.
665 More cosmetic than anything else, but cant hurt with the new dev-state
666 scheme.
667
668 Updated /sbin/init to set the console log level to 1, so that bootup
669 can be much cleaner. Also updated /etc/init.d/modules not to have
670 a logger in it 'use' depends, as it should not be needed anymore.
671
672 Updated /sbin/rc to check if devfsd is still running between runlevel
673 changes.
674
675 Updated /etc/init.d/modules to run update-modules. We want to be sure
676 /etc/modules.conf is updated when running depmod -a.
677
678 Change ftp's uid to 21 in /etc/passwd (was the same as bind). Also
679 added a entry for xfs (X Font Server) in /etc/passwd and /etc/group.
680
681 Added /etc/init.d/net.ppp0, /etc/conf.d/net.ppp0 and
682 /usr/lib/ppp/chat-default as part of my new pppd scripts. Also
683 updated tarball.sh to handle ppp/chat-default.
684
685 Added /etc/skel/.bash* to make things cleaner.
686
687 Other minor changes.
688
14 17 Nov 2001; Donny Davies (woodchip@gentoo.org): Added /etc/shells file 689 17 Nov 2001; Donny Davies (woodchip@gentoo.org): Added /etc/shells file
