			<description><![CDATA[<p>hello,</p><p>can&#039;t help with the openrc stuff but i looked at /etc/init.d/udev and on my install, devuan excalibur+sysvinit, this service is non-functional so deleting it would not change anything.</p><p>the udev daemon is not active:</p><div class="codebox"><pre><code>/home/xyz&gt; service udev status</code></pre></div><p>this is due to the udev script exit&#039;ing at the earliest possible moment:</p><div class="codebox"><pre><code>/home/xyz&gt; grep DAEMON /etc/init.d/udev
DAEMON=&quot;/lib/systemd/systemd-udevd&quot;
[ -x $DAEMON ] || exit 0</code></pre></div><p>on this machine, this is what i find in /lib/systemd</p><div class="codebox"><pre><code>/home/xyz&gt; ls -l /lib/systemd/
total 30
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 3452 Mar 14 15:45 ntp-units.d
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 8192 May 30 12:59 system

drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 8192 May 16 19:59 user</code></pre></div><p>i have no idea why the udev service file exists. the eudev service file is largely identical and is active. the udev service file must be a relic from devuan&#039;s past?</p><p>a quick search of the gentoo forums mentions that this openrc error message is due to &quot;duplicate services&quot;, so&#160; maybe there are&#160; different services using the same name? check your system and spend some time searching the gentoo forums, there may be threads similar to your issue there.</p>]]></description>
