[gentoo-user] rc-config...

[gentoo-user] rc-config...

[David Corbin]

"rc-config list default" yields nothing for me, but "rc-config list" yields 
all sorts of things, many of which are 'default'.  I'm sure I must not 
understand something.   Ideas?

What exactly are you trying to do here? If you are trying to look at 
everything in the default runlevel you want to command "rc-update show"

I honestly don't remember the exact details of what I was trying to do, but it 
appears to me that *something* is broken.  The usage for rc-config says 

  list <runlevel>           List all available init scripts
    runlevel                  Runlevel to list (defaults to all)

"rc-config show" doesn't yield anything either, and according to the 
documentation would only work show what's in the current level.

Did you try `rc-update show` like I suggested? It appears that is what 
you are looking for. (Notice the difference, I suggested rc-update, you 
are using rc-config)

I did miss that difference.  And yes I can figure out what I need that way, 
Thank you.  But that doesn't change the fact that rc-config doesn't work.

What package is this rc-config command contained in?  I don't have it on 
my system, and as far as I can tell from Googling it's been obsolete 
since 2004.3 in favour of rc-status.

equery yields:

app-admin/eselect-1.0 (/usr/bin/rc-config -> /usr/bin/eselect)

rc-status seems like it's quite adequate, but nothing seems to have ever 
gotten rid of rc-config....

Well, that would explain a bit. ;)  Thanks David and Peter.

And as for my comment about it being obsolete: 
http://gentoo-wiki.com/Talk:TIP_Speed_up_your_boot_time#.22rc-config_list.22_appears_to_be_obsolete 
was the only Google result relevant to the command `rc-config`.

rc-config seems to be an "alias" for "eselect rc". At least
I think so, because the output of both programs is exactly
the same.
