Issue #5197 has been updated by Alexey Lapitsky.

Hi,

Looks like options `--all` and `--unused` were introduced in eselect version 
[1.1.1](http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/eselect/trunk/NEWS), so we 
probably better do not use them to avoid problems on old systems.

Anyway, eselect provider looks good and I would really like to merge it to the 
puppet tree (not as default service provider for gentoo, of course). Any 
comments from puppet team?

Bug #5197: Gentoo service provider doesn't catch long service names due to 
"rc-update show" truncating names

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.
