For everyone's information -- The conf.d/net removal on upgrade is a packaging issue, which could not have been tested prior to openrc-0.12.ebuild hitting the tree. There are details in https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481336 if anyone's interested in why it's happening. I've fixed the 0.12.ebuild in the tree now. It's a hack but it seems to be the best possible solution. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.20 (GNU/Linux) iF4EAREIAAYFAlIOT+QACgkQ2ugaI38ACPB5cAD+KZaB/IOhTOQB90L5JEwPnBcO eJzbFHOqtxeJAQ/i6pgBAKukByT2wFolArwBoNxjo6e+D+uVEw+Rct2KPL3cXM7t =NhhK -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
