Semantic error in ebuild prevents static librar(ies) from being built. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge alsa-lib 2. Look for /usr/lib/libasound.a (not there) 3. Look behind the couch (not there either) Removing both instances of "=yes" on line 41 of ebuild fixes problem
Weirdness... The =yes should do absolutely nothing: (01:48:19 Wed Mar 23 2005 root@cid i686) ~ $ qpkg -I -v -f /usr/lib/libasound.a media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.8 *
ok, I've updated the ebuild... but I am still curious what caused this for you...
