From: Doug Hunley To: gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 X-Archives-Salt: X-Archives-Hash: d6d089c19a14131c95b20b7fda52d3f4 I decided to switch to iproute2 and it went fine, until I removed net-tools. At that point, I got errors about /bin/hostname being missing. I did a quick search and found http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-443540-start-0.html where the dev says baselayout > 1.12 doesn't *need* the hostname command. I'm running ~amd w/ openrc and baselayout-2,0,3, yet my system complains. Anyone know how to kill net-tools completely? Thanks!
