111923 2005-11-08 16:26 0000 sci-mathematics/axiom after emerge doesn't work at all: easily fixed with one line! 2005-12-04 13:42:43 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Linux Ebuilds unspecified All Linux RESOLVED DUPLICATE P2 normal --- 1 ngent@ntmm.org plasmaroo@gentoo.org ngent@ntmm.org 2005-11-08 16:26:43 0000 I've installed several recent CVS versions of axiom through portage, using axiom-9999.ebuild All fail to run, on account of the hardwired axiom path on the second line of /opt/axiom/bin/axiom and /usr/bin/axiom being still set to the build directory instead of the installation directory. Just changing this line to: export AXIOM=/opt/axiom makes the program actually run, apparently without any further problems. Note the "export" --- it was necessary, as the binary also needs the path. Note also, that making /usr/bin/axiom a symlink would be neater (in my case, I removed it and symlinked from /opt/bin). That way, the change need only be made once. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge sci-mathematics/axiom-9999 (with necessary keywords and unmask to make it work) Actual Results: try to run it: errors ensue, nothing starts Expected Results: have started plasmaroo@gentoo.org 2005-11-09 08:40:47 0000 Do you have the original /usr/bin/axiom? The ebuild does a sed on that script but it looks like the sed requires an update. plasmaroo@gentoo.org 2005-12-04 13:42:43 0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 75372 ***
