Why do you suggest masking it immediately? Emerging it without changing any use-flags, has oldnet enabled by default, so user gets exactly the same net init-scripts as with openrc-0.4 before, so where is the regression that needs to be masked? One can still use the same stuff and nobody is forced to transition to the new network script. Regards Matthias
