xmltv-0.5.37-r1 install docs in /usr/share/doc/xmltv-0.5.37/ and /usr/share/doc/xmltv-0.5.37-r1/. Adding: sed -i "s:\$VERSION = '${PV}':\$VERSION = '${PVR}':" Makefile.PL || die to the beginning of src_compile() fixes this (tested by creating an xmltv-0.5.39-r1 from xmltv-0.5.39 with this line added)
Is solved in 0.5.43-r3 , does anybody still uses 0.5.37?
Fixed: solved in more recent version.
