The bug is a bit noisy, but it isn't clear to me what is actually wrong with /lib/gentoo/functions.sh. I do see that there is a dependency on gentoo-functions which should install it, though it is odd that it is only pulled in for USE=-systemd. Perhaps they need to use an openrc-specific functions.sh. One of the issues is that historically this file was packaged by openrc but wasn't entirely openrc-specific, so we're trying to split out the stuff that applies no matter what service manager you use from the stuff that actually is related to openrc. -- Rich
