Bugzilla Bug 38156

The ebuild disables sandbox and installs files past it. Not all of them get
included in the package.

At least the files /usr/lib/libelmme-*.so are affected. They get installed when
building, but are not marked as belonging to the package and unmerging leaves
them in place. Binary packages of elm do not work at all because of missing
libraries.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge --buildpkg elm
2. emerge --unmerge elm
3. rm /usr/lib/libelmme-*.so
4. emerge --usepkgonly elm

Actual Results:  
elm does not start, due to missing libraries:

elm: error while loading shared libraries: libelmme-base.so: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  
all files should have been included in the package, so that binary packages
would work and no files would be left hanging after unmerging.

A diff file for -r1 ebuild

There were many more files slipping past portage. I enabled sandbox again for
this one and introduced some sed magic so everything fits where it was intended
by the author.

Hm, this new ebuild fails on sandbox access violation when re-emerging. The
reason being something with elm's install process checking on some existing
files in living system (/usr/lib/something).

elm is using bunch of homemade tools to process and install certain data files
(these tools live in utils/) and they're not documented. I'll have a look at
this one later today, I hope.

A diff for -r1

One more sed tweak was needed and few datafiles needed to be copied by hand
(insinto+doins).

I am starting to hate elm for its monstrously complicated build process. :)

Anyway, this version should be working with no problems.

Andrej, thanks for the diff. I've tested this here and it works fine. No
sandbox violations and all the correct files are added/removed when
emerging/unmerging. Added elm-2.4_rc100-r1.ebuild to CVS to fix this problem,
closing bug.
