Some (older) service startup script is starting with a: #!/sbin/runscript shebang, instead of the openrc equivalent: #!/sbin/openrc-run If you look in your /etc/init.d/ scripts you will see that there quite a few that still start with the runscript shebang. Eventually ebuilds will update their startup scripts to use the openrc syntax, unless systemd takes over the world and openrc is abandoned. > > and most important - what effect if any does the problem have? > > So far, no noticeable effects accept for the warning message above. > > > I can't tell if your system boots normally or if it blows > > up and eats your kittens. > > Shall I wait for that to happen before starting to worry? :) No, because after it eats your kittens it will drink your beer.
