Bug 401703 – dev-lang/gdl-0.9.2 installs library of procedures into /usr/var/tmp/portage

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Joe Sapp (RETIRED) 2012-01-31 21:44:10 UTC]

It seems that dev-lang/gdl-0.9.2 installs its library of procedures into /usr/var/tmp/portage/....  It seems to be misplaced; according to GDL_PATH, these belong in /usr/share/gdl/pro (which does not exist on my machine).

Reproducible: Didn't try




Let me know if you really need my emerge --info.  I don't immediately see the error in the ebuild.

GDL_DATA_DIR isn't being set like it should be, can't tell why right away.  But I can see that @ configure time it's
${GDL_DATA_DIR} = /var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/gdl-0.9.2/work/gdl-0.9.2_build/share/gdl/pro/gdl
rather than 
${GDL_DATA_DIR} = share/gdl/pro/gdl

Created attachment 300587 [details, diff]
patch against gdl-0.9.2.ebuild

For the life of me, I can't see why it's not respecting -DGDL_DATA_DIR which we set in src_configure.  This patch just manually sets the variable in src/CMakeLists.txt but it does fix the install paths that are broken.
