Bug 454414 – emerge -uDN @system will fail, when 9.0 --> 9.1 upgrade.

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Yuta SATOH 2013-01-28 11:30:50 UTC]

* freebsd-lib is required SYS.
When upgrading, SYS seems to need to be included in WORKDIR.
In fact, SYS will be extracted only when USE=build.

original report: Bug 444920 comment #6


* need /usr/src/sys-9.1
Some sys-freebsd packages requires /usr/src/sys-9.1.
However, if the USE flag is not enabled symlink, it will not be created.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. eselect profile set default/bsd/fbsd/x86/9.1
2. emerge -uDN @system

patch for freebsd-lib-9.1.ebuild

Extract ${SYS} in all cases.

patch for freebsd-sources-9.1.ebuild

When /usr/src/sys-${RV} does not exist, create it.

nope, you are supposed to have it as a symlink to your freebsd-sources install. and doing this without taking care of its patches is a no go anyway.

Thank you for your comment.

As you say, I have confirmed that patch for freebsd-lib is not required.
I think that it needs a patch for freebsd-sources.


FYI,
Result of running `emerge freebsd-sources` without USE=symlink.

$ ls -lha /usr/src
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel      10B May  5  2012 sys -> sys-9.0-r0
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel      10B May  5  2012 sys-9.0 -> sys-9.0-r0
drwxr-xr-x  57 root  wheel     1.0k May  5  2012 sys-9.0-r0
drwxr-xr-x  57 root  wheel     1.0k Jan 26 01:18 sys-9.1

what we could do: use $PV instead of $PVR for slot in freebsd-sources, install to sys-${PV} and it should fix the problems, no?

I think ${RV} is better.
When version beta/rc, problem occurs again.

I was confirmed to solve this problem by applying the patch attached.
