Bug 127525 – net-im/licq-1.3.2-r1 failed - installed in ${D}/${D} when PORTAGE_TMPDIR != /var/tmp

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

Hi,

today revdep-rebuild decided to recompile my installation of licq-1.3.2-r1. After compilation had finished portage errored out with the following message:

QA Notice: // installed in ${D}/${D}
QA Notice: //usr installed in ${D}/${D}
QA Notice: //usr/share installed in ${D}/${D}
QA Notice: //usr/share/licq installed in ${D}/${D}

I had a peek into licq-1.3.2-r1.ebuild and found the lines

        # fixes bug #22136
        rm -fR ${D}/var

So this problem had already been reported as bug #22136 but the solution doesn't work if PORTAGE_TMPDIR is set to anything else than /var/... as mine is.
I tweaked the ebuild a little bit to get all these unnecessary files/dirs deleted. I'll attach a diff of the ebuild to show what I did.

Created attachment 83083 [details, diff]
licq-ebuild-qa-fix.diff

I know this is no "clean" solution but I needed a quick fix and this was the first that came to my mind and also worked ;)

> grep -i "rm \-fR" /usr/portage/net-im/licq/licq-*.ebuild
/usr/portage/net-im/licq/licq-1.2.7.ebuild:     rm -fR ${D}/var
/usr/portage/net-im/licq/licq-1.3.0.ebuild:     rm -fR ${D}/var
/usr/portage/net-im/licq/licq-1.3.2.ebuild:     rm -fR ${D}/var
/usr/portage/net-im/licq/licq-1.3.2-r1.ebuild:  rm -fR ${D}/var

This doesn't apply to licq-1.3.2-r1 but to all versions which are currently in portage. So I would suggest to remove the versionstring from the summary...

Cheers

The same "QA Notice" and "Aborting due to QA concerns" at synced ~x86.

[Comment 5 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-07-02 14:26:37 UTC]

Ping! About time to fix this?

[Comment 6 Eddward 2006-07-04 21:45:17 UTC]

Any chance the rm could be changedto something like:

rm -fR ${D}/${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/

Please?

Thanks, manually applying that line to 1.3.2-r1 helped me out too!

thanks I applied the patch to all current ebuilds
