Description Joe Wells 2006-06-28 14:03:53 UTC

When doing "emerge --sync", toward the end package renamings in the
/usr/portage/profiles/updates/* files are handled.  The handling of
binary packages made by FEATURES=buildpkg is incomplete.  For example,
in /usr/portage/profiles/updates/2Q-2006 there is this line:

  move app-text/ghostscript-afpl app-text/ghostscript-gpl

On my system, this renamed

  /usr/portage/packages/All/ghostscript-afpl-8.54-r1.tbz2

to become:

  /usr/portage/packages/All/ghostscript-gpl-8.54-r1.tbz2

However, there is still a symbolic link at

  /usr/portage/packages/app-text/ghostscript-afpl-8.54-r1.tbz2

that points to:

  ../All/ghostscript-afpl-8.54-r1.tbz2

This causes problems for "eclean packages".

This is with sys-apps/portage-2.1.1_pre1-r5.

Can this please be fixed?  Thanks in advance!

The layout of $PKGDIR/All is about to be changed.

This is fixed in svn r3687.  Like solar said, the we will be migrating to an new $PKGDIR format for bug 133908.
