Bugzilla Bug 222205

I have installed vpython 3.2.9 and I do
python /usr/share/doc/visual-3.2.9/examples/orbit.py

and I get
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/doc/visual-3.2.9/examples/orbit.py", line 1, in ?
    from visual import *
ImportError: No module named visual

Here are some lines from the emerge that to me seems to have a problem in them

Oops, wrong bug.

*** Bug 224315 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I just wanted to comment on this bug. The ebuild is not installing code (or it
is removing it).
I looked at the ebuild and it seems to install the code but the last two lines,
remove some files. I don't have the knowledge to know why, but just commenting
out the two lines

#       rm -rf "${D}"/usr/bin/
#       rm -rf "${D}"/usr/lib/

solved the problem for me.
I thought that ${D} referred to the directory where the build takes place (?)
/var/tmp/..... in my case.

No, it's where the files are intermittently installed to instead of the "live"
filesystem - it would normally resolve to
/var/tmp/portage/dev-python/visual/image. What these lines do is remove
everything that would normally end up in /usr/bin and /usr/lib.

Added dev-python/visual-3.2.9-r1 to tree, solves this issue.

Closing bug.

Best regards,
