Bug 200906 – app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.61 installs IJS in /usr/local

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) 2007-12-01 10:01:49 UTC]

Beside the fact that we should _never_ install in /usr/local:

flame@enterprise ~ % qlist ghostscript-gpl | grep /usr/local
/usr/local/bin/ijs_server_example
/usr/local/bin/ijs-config
/usr/local/bin/ijs_client_example
/usr/local/share/man/man1/ijs-config.1.bz2
/usr/local/include/ijs/ijs.h
/usr/local/include/ijs/ijs_server.h
/usr/local/include/ijs/ijs_client.h
/usr/local/lib/libijs.a
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/ijs.pc
/usr/local/lib/libijs.la
/usr/lib/debug/usr/local/bin/ijs_server_example.debug
/usr/lib/debug/usr/local/bin/ijs_client_example.debug


This was previously installed in /usr instead.

Please fix this with a revbump.

Thanks,
Diego

Well, changing in the ebuild
./autogen.sh || die "ijs autogen failed"
to 
AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS="--copy" ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr || die "ijs autogen failed"
seems to fix it.
--copy is cause eutils do it this way.

Do not use autogen.sh, use eautoreconf and ./configure, and eventually mime what autogen does in the middle.

In that case, does econf not work ?
Contents of autogen.sh doesn't suggest it.
And the whole autogen.sh should be covered by eautoreconf, followed by econf.
Only question remaining is does it need WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.6 or is "latest" enough.

Fixed in CVS, thanks for spotting!
