Bug 318001 – net-fs/samba fails to install with -client -server

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Bartek 'Paczesiowa' Cwiklowski 2010-05-01 14:10:50 UTC]

I have all flags disabled for samba, only smbclient is enabled (usedep for fusesmb) and samba fails to install with:

dobin: at least one argument needed

looking at the ebuild I see this:

BINPROGS=""
...
dobin ${BINPROGS} || die "installing binaries failed"

and BINPROGS is never assigned anything when all the flags are disabled

Reproducible: Always

Adjusting summary since 3.4.6 fails just as well as 3.5.2 (see #319135)

I was getting the same error with 3.4.6, I changed the USE flags and added "client", but now I'm getting this:

My USE flags for samba are as follows:

[ebuild     U ]    net-fs/samba-3.4.6 [3.0.37] USE="caps client%* ldap pam readline smbclient%* syslog -acl -addns% -ads -aio% -avahi% -cluster% -cups -debug -doc -examples -fam -ldb% -netapi% -quota% -server% -smbsharemodes% -swat -winbind (-async%) (-automount%) (-ipv6%*) (-oav%) (-python%*) (-quotas%) (-selinux%)" 0 kB

Ok, adding netapi to the USE flags did the trick. It still fails with -client and -server though.

[Comment 6 Etaoin Shrdlu 2010-05-11 14:52:52 UTC]

Thanks, it works fine now. However, with USE="smbclient -client -server" the smbclient program is not installed. I take now one MUST enable either "client", "server" or both?
