This is my first posting here, so pls be kind
I learn my first steps with ansible for some weeks now and get some issues with the service-module.
As some of you may know, on gentoo linux it is rather common these days to have both systemd and openrc installed at the same time.
systemd as active init-system, and openrc as the “gentoo-default” that is kept there just as a fallback.
So the binaries and tools of both $PS1-systems are installed while only one (in my case systemd) is active and running.
Now when I write a task in ansible that should ensure that service chronyd is running I get back messages that seem openrc-based and not systemd-based.
I discussed these issues on the gentoo-users-ml already:

(I simply quote the link to open a discussion … I am ready to provide any additional infos if needed)
Maybe this is a case not yet fully considered in the service-module?
I’d be happy to get some pointers or help in here, thanks a lot …
