removed /usr from --datadir and --mandir to fix the bug
version 1.08 of kbd introduced --prefix support
the datadir and mandir is changed to $prefix$datadir
and $prefix$mandir during ./configure and if no prefix is specified
its default is "/usr"
so "datadir=/usr/share" becomes "datadir=/usr/usr/share" and that makes
loadkeys to search at the wrong position for the keymap to load
this patch fixes the bug.

sorry for posting it three times - but I got an error (malformed multipart
submit or something like that and was confused about that)
Hello. I was unable to load keymaps and consolefonts too. Finding this bug helped me out so thanks. A modification should be made so that the full path is not required rather than asking user to add full path. With regards. The proposed solution (http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=15159&action=view) works. Please update the ebuild in portage asap. kbd-1.08-r1 solves the bug. Great and fast as always. :) *** Bug 25487 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Thanks Nicolai Lissner, missed your input - did add to changelog though. updated kbd from 1.06-r1 to 1.08-r4, as it went stable, and i get: # /etc/init.d/keymaps start * Loading key mappings... cannot open file fr-latin0 * Error loading key mappings [ !! ] probably due to a change in the installed paths. i'm still using baselayout-1.8.6.10-r1 (lastest stable). guys, what are you looking at when you move packages to stable? |
