Issue #5197 has been updated by Stefan Schulte.
does these alternatives also truncate the name?
eselect --no-color rc list
eselect --no-color rc show --all --unused
The first one should give you a list of all available initscripts. If the
script is in any runlevel, they will appear on the same line. The second one
lists every runlevel and for each runlevel it lists every script in it (+
started or stopped). If the last one does not truncate one could modify the
provider:
* use `eselect --no-color rc --all --unused to prefetch`
(running/stopped/enabled)
* use `eselect --no-color --brief rc add <script>` to enable
* use `eselect --no-color --brief rc del <script>` to disable
* use `eselect --no-color --brief rc start <script>` to ensure running
* use `eselect --no-color --brief rc stop <script>` to ensure stopped

Bug #5197: Gentoo service provider doesn't catch long service names due to
"rc-update show" truncating names
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5197
Author: Doug Warner
Status: Accepted

Affected Puppet version: 0.25.5
Keywords: service

Branch:
I'm trying to manage a service called "openvpn.something_rather_longish" (sorry
for the example name). Unfortunately, when you run `/sbin/rc-update show` you
get the following:
openvpn.something_r | default
Puppet doesn't find the service "openvpn.something_rather_longish" so it tries
to enable it. Every time it runs.
rc-update doesn't seem like there's a way around this, so I would recommend
just looking in `/etc/runlevels/{boot,default}/` instead and then use rc-update
to enable/disable the service.
I'll try to work on a patch tomorrow as this is affecting us in several
different situations.
