I promise this mail has nothing to do with GPG.

If you use test grimoire and updated it and recast init.d in the last 24
hours, you may have a non-bootable system. A call to /usr/bin/grep made it
into the init system, which won't work for scripts that are called before
/usr is mounted.

This has been fixed, so please scribe update and cast -c init.d again as
soon as the next test tarball regenerates. If you want to see if you have
the bad version and/or fix it yourself, look at /etc/init.d/auto_init line
88. The broken line looks like:


if builtin echo " $FUNCS " | grep -qE -e "[[:space:]]$1[[:space:]]"; then


To fix this you can either update or replace it manually with:


if /bin/expr " $FUNCS " : ".*[[:space:]]$1[[:space:]]" >/dev/null; then


Sorry for the inconvenience.
