 |
|
I can't seem to get it off the system..
I had it on from my first build of the system then someone said install metalog for various reasons and I did (am happier with metalog), but now I get this when ever I emerge things..
| Code: | * Caching service dependencies...
* Service 'syslog-ng' already provide 'logger'!;
* Not adding service 'metalog'...
|
How do I fix this?

try first unmerging syslog-ng, before emerging metalog
If that doesn't work, check the file /var/cache/edb/virtuals, and find the line which says virtual/logger. I'm not sure, but you can probably delete the line, then emerge metalog. |

Do you still have syslog-ng in your rc-levels?
rc-update -s
Is it listed there?
Did you do a rc-update del syslog-ng?
When unmerging such daemons all configs and scripts remain in /etc - so there is still the /etc/init.d/syslog-ng script.

I've run myself into the same problem...
| Code: | root@host / # rc-update -s
alsasound | boot
apache2 | default
apmd |
aumix |
bootmisc | boot
bootsplash | default
checkfs | boot
checkroot | boot
clock | boot
consolefont | boot
crypto-loop |
cupsd |
domainname | default
esound |
famd |
gpm |
hdparm |
hostname | boot
ircd |
keymaps | boot
local | default nonetwork
localmount | boot
metalog | default
modules | boot
mysql | default
net.eth0 | default
net.lo | boot
netmount | default
nfs | default
nfsmount | default
nscd |
ntp-client | default
ntpd |
numlock |
portmap |
pure-ftpd |
rmnologin | boot
rsyncd |
samba | default
serial | boot
sshd | default
syslog-ng |
urandom | boot
vixie-cron | default
winbind |
xdm | default
xfs | default
xinetd | |
but when I do
| Code: | | root@host / # rc-update del syslog-ng |
... I get
| Code: | | syslog-ng not found in any of the specified runlevels. |
There are many services I unmerged a long time, so I would like to clean this.
But everytime I try to remove one I get the error I mentioned already.  |

| Delete the service's file in /etc/init.d/ and the redundant line should go away. |
