I analyzed the case of openvpn
All based on a standard 5.2.4 installation
SALT# cat /etc/motd
LEAF Bering-uClibc 5.2.4 Rev 1 uClibc 0.9.33.2 at SALT
Linux 4.1.16-i486 #1 Thu Feb 4 19:09:38 CET 2016
SALT# apkg -l | grep openvpn
openvpnz 2.3.9 Rev 2 uClibc 0.9.33.2
SALT# lsmod | grep tun
So openvpn is installed, but tun is _not_ loaded
SALT# ls /lib/modules/4.1.16-i486/tun*
/lib/modules/4.1.16-i486/tunnel4.ko.gz
/lib/modules/4.1.16-i486/tunnel6.ko.gz
Mhhh... the tun module is not even _copied_ to /lib/modules
SALT# ls -l /var/lib/lrpkg/openvpnz.depmod
ls: /var/lib/lrpkg/openvpnz.depmod: No such file or directory
No surprise, there is no depmod file in openvpnz
<DependsOn>
Package = libcrpto
Package = libssl
</DependsOn>
So current analysis shows that despite the pledge of DependsOn, it has
not fully been implemented, even one of the most cited packages is not
even supported.
Please, what are we discussing about here?
cheers
