While hunting another bug, I found that several ebuilds in dev-java call Apache
Ant in src_compile(), but do not respect the exit code of the call.
For example, emerging commons-validator prints
BUILD FAILED
file:/var/tmp/portage/commons-validator-1.0.2-r1/work/commons-validator-1.0.2-src/build.xml:182:
Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.
but merging happily continues:
>>> dev-java/commons-validator-1.0.2-r1 merged.
Candidates for replacing "ant ${ant_params}" with "ant ${ant_params} || die"
are
commons-digester
commons-fileupload
commons-httpclient
commons-lang
commons-logging
commons-validator
ecs
lucene
servletapi
rhino
fastutil
jade
sablecc
fscript
joscar
violinstrings
commons-daemon
commons-launcher
jmx
poi
commons-el
commons-modeler
joda-time
Heh, you made me do a lot of commits >:)
Thanks, these are all fixed in portage now.
I appreciate the report.
