Among other things, the part of interest in this discussion was: After these packages are emerged, it is absolutely critical that you immediately update your configuration files with dispatch-conf, etc-update or a similar tool [2] then follow the steps in the OpenRC Migration Guide [3]. 2. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml?part=3chap=4 3. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openrc-migration.xml Like Dale, I used etc-update, and on two different laptops (one x86 and one amd64), which worked without hitch on both.

[gentoo-user] Baselayout2/OpenRC migration question - dispatch-conf vs etc-update
Hello, Ok, I'm about to do the deed, but was concerned about one thing... The migration guide only mentions using dispatch-conf after performing the update... I have only/always used etc-update for all the years I've been using gentoo, and would really, REALLY prefer not to use a new/unfamiliar tool during a procedure like this on a production server. I'm hoping that this was just a minor oversight, and that etc-update is fully supported as pr migration?

I think that just shows the person writing the guide uses dispatch-conf. Dale :-) :-)
