do you have enough free diskspace ?

Yeah... about 952M left on the /var/tmp partition after `emerge fontconfig'
fails.

please attach the full emerge ouput

The same problem occurs on my machine.
It might be interesting to note that the directory /var/tmp/portage/fontconfig-2.2.0-r2/image/usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.2.0-r2/fontconfig-devel _does_ exist.

I also have this problem, and at my system the directory
"/var/tmp/portage/fontconfig-2.2.0-r2/image/usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.2.0-r2/fontconfig-devel"
exists BUT IT IS EMPTY.

it isn't in the official package, might have todo witht the fact that the docs
get regenerated, but obviously not correct in your case.

I really should hack the docs stuff out, it doesn't seem react to the switch
well and i probably can just go with the docs in the tarball.

If someone could fix the makefile docs stuff it would be helpful.

I found a way to fix the problem for me, so maybe some of you might want to try
the attached ebuild and report if it works.

Digest for fontconfig-2.2.0-r3.ebuild

The 2.2.0-r3 ebuild fails with the same error, despite the fact that it applies
the installdocs patch. Was I supposed to do anything else besides copying the
ebuild file, the digest, and the patch to their respective directories?

Weird, it worked quite fine on my system.

Normally a message about the missing file in fontconfig-devel should be given, but that shouldn't stop the install. Could you give us a copy (or the last 20 lines) of your doc/Makefile _after_ trying to emerge?
You should find the file in /var/tmp/portage/fontconfig-2.2.0-r3/work/fontconfig-2.2.0/doc/Makefile

doc/Makefile

Attached is doc/Makefile, as you requested.

Same problem here, and -r3 solved it.

fontconfig-2.2.0-r3-installdocs.patch

I removed directory 'fontconfig-devel' from the DOC_DIRS variable in
doc/Makefile, and fontconfig now installs successfully on my machine.

ok, i assume you all have doc in USE ? the problem is probably the doc
generation on some systems, but we do not really need to generate the docs so
i'm just gonna disable that.

*** Bug 21465 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

If someone is interested there are some solutions listed in the 
duplicate bug also:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21465

I havn't tried them myself, so I don't know if they work or not.
To avoid the problem I just took the short route of USE="-doc"...

*** Bug 22617 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

just added 2.2.1 which always disables doc generation, please test it.

Version 2.2.1 fixed the problem for me that I reported in bug 22617.

2.2.1 works for me, as well.

ok i just put this 'fix' in 2.2.0-r2 and hope that is the end of this.

thanks for your help
