Hello, Gentoo.
Portage has just unmerged my openrc-0.34.11. I didn't ask it to. I'm
not very happy about this.
I did
# emerge -auND @world
, and after dealing with five packages, it just warned me that openrc
was a critical system package, then went ahead and unmerged it.
I presume that if I'd tried to reboot, I would have failed. I've
manually emerged openrc again (version 0.42.1), and it looks like it
will work, but I haven't tried it yet.
What's up with Gentoo at the moment? Uninstalling system critical
packages automatically is a big deal, and shouldn't happen.
