It seems that cloud-init has evolved past the previous work in getting gentoo functioning on first boot. It is missing the proper renderer to configure the network on the booted machine, in this case would be "openrc".

I am not good with python enough to help, but the original gentoo script in cloudinit/distros/gentoo.py looks like has mostly what is needed to get the network configured, and needs to be adapted to a network renderer.

Putting this bug here to hopefully get some traction on this.

stages.py[ERROR]: Unable to render networking. Network config is likely broken: No available network renderers found. Searched through list: ['eni', 'sysconfig', 'netplan', 'network-manager', 'freebsd', 'netbsd', 'openbsd', 'networkd']
