Description Maciej Zieba 2005-11-07 14:45:32 UTC
Hi :)

I'm testing the modular xorg and I've noticed two packages failing to emerge
with it - Xaw3d and groff, both complain about missing host.def and date.def.
For more information please look here:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=2859655  (look for posts of "Crocodil"
on page 9)

As it turns out the files should be created by xorg-cf-files but they aren't (on
AMD64). I believe this ought to be fixed :)

Regards,
Maciej Zieba

Bug-wranglers, caught this bug while looking through the forums.  Hope you don't 
mind if I take it.

Not too sure why the symlink is being ignored.  Anyways, those lines should 
probably read 

        echo "" >> ${D}/usr/$(get_libdir)/X11/config/host.def 
        echo "" >> ${D}/usr/$(get_libdir)/X11/config/version.def 
        echo "" >> ${D}/usr/$(get_libdir)/X11/config/date.def

I'll fix in CVS.  Let me know if that makes the problem go away.
