Control: retitle -1 shit happens if you interrupt important parts of boot
Control: severity -1 important
Oif, this was a _nasty_ case of BTS ping-pong. Thus, I've taken the liberty
of using semi-profanity in the title, its use is warranted :p
But really, we have two bugs here:
* udev takes ages (30s) to run "udevadm settle"
* openrc allows to interrupt hung boot phases
The latter is a feature rather than a bug, at least in its design and
_usual_ cases, but sometimes it has nasty results like here. Someone who is
feed up with udev's slowness will learn that the timeout will take so long
and will press ^C too fast. This makes a feature that allows recovering
from stuck boot break the boot instead.
