sorry.....

I am totally stupid. I got you now.

Check if the networkmanager of systemd or "DEFINETLY" openrc is used.
More I cannot tell you....

Okay, I have an update on this.

Note that wlp3s0 is the WireLess adapter and enp0s2 is the wired Ethernet adapter.

Given the /etc/conf.d/net as shown below (i.e. only config_wlp3s0="dhcp")

 1. If there is *no* /etc/init.d/net.enp0s2 link (or any adapter
    link), then the wireless connection comes up with a dhcp-derived
    address
 2. if there *is* an /etc/init.d/net.enp0s2 link, and the same
    /etc/conf.d/net file:
     1. the wireless comes up with no address (and no dhcp attempt in
        /var/log/syslog)
     2. The wired adapter has a (dhcp-derived) zero-conf address or
        something, at 169.
 3. if a fixed ip address is additionally specified for the wired
    adapter in /etc/conf.d/net
     1. it is assigned as specified
     2. No attempt is made to run dhcp on the wireless anymore
        (although dhcp *is* specified for it in /etc/conf.d/net)

The thing is, before my root filesystem got crashed by a negligent ext4 recovery, the system came up multi-homed, with a static and a dhcp-derived address.
Coming from 4.9.? to 4.19.72.

Could it be that something changed?

I have this line in /etc/conf.d/net:

given:

$ifconfig wlp3s0

          RX bytes:619501  TX bytes:40551

but I still have to manually start dhcpcd (now, after installing kernel
4.19.72).

Another problem - wpa_supplicant then defines a default gateway, even
though one already existed for the wired connection:

config_enp2s0="192.168.179.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 brd 192.168.179.255"
routes_enp2s0="default via 192.168.179.24"

I have to then manually delete that when I'm on wireless.  That all
happened automatically before.  I wonder how I broke that all.
