Description Dave Hodgins 2017-12-11 19:52:44 CET 
In /etc/rc.modules, the bash script uses the command gprintf which is not
a valid command or subroutine in this context. Changing it to printf fixes
the problem. As per Michael Altizer from the dev ml, it's in line 20 of
http://gitweb.mageia.org/software/forks/initscripts/tree/mandriva/rc.modules?h=distro/mga
which is included in the srpm as initscripts-mgaconf.patch.xz

Patch to correct the print command in /etc/rc.modules

The attached patch will likely have to be modified to alter
initscripts-mgaconf.patch.xz instead of directly modifying /etc/rc.modules
