57227 2004-07-15 14:29 0000 app-misc/bins explicitly puts files into /usr/local 2004-12-21 07:10:37 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Linux Ebuilds unspecified All Linux RESOLVED FIXED P2 normal --- 52088 1 RAGermany@gmx.net perl@gentoo.org RAGermany@gmx.net 2004-07-15 14:29:32 0000 While looking at my /usr/local I found out that app-misc/bins installed its templates and locale into /usr/local/share instead of /usr/share. Looking at the ebuild shows that the files were put there intentionally althogh /usr/local should never be touched by ebuilds in the portage tree (except baselayout). Here is the relevant section: src_install() { echo "" |env DESTDIR=${D} PREFIX="/usr" ./install.sh || die # Fix for pathing for i in `grep -l portage ${D}/usr/bin/*`; do sed -i -e "s:${D}:/:" ${i} done mkdir ${D}/usr/local mv ${D}/usr/share ${D}/usr/local/ sed -i -e "s:/usr/share:/usr/local/share:" ${D}/usr/bin/bins } Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge app-misc/bins Actual Results: The bins templates and locale are installed into /usr/local/share Expected Results: Templates and locale should be under /usr/share seemant@gentoo.org 2004-07-15 14:31:52 0000 wow, the maintainer's a surprise RAGermany@gmx.net 2004-07-15 14:35:22 0000 I thought the same thing. Never seen Aron make mistakes like this... vapier@gentoo.org 2004-07-15 15:32:10 0000 has nothing to do with Aron was introduced with 1.1.26 and Bug 52088 corporate_gadfly@hotmail.com 2004-07-16 05:51:00 0000 I am the original reporter of bug 52088. Note, that I tried to pursuade Michael to use /usr/share instead of /usr/local/share (see bug 52088 comment 2 point #2). To which Michael replied that /usr/local came from upstream (see bug 52088 comment 3). Sorry if I caused any problems (sheephish grin). mcummings@gentoo.org 2004-12-21 07:10:37 0000 my head on a platter is now committed.
