when using installsources, i see lots of errors like the following: rsync: link_stat "/var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.5-r5/work/kdelibs-3.5.5/pics/<built-in>" failed: No such file or directory (2) they are harmless, but annoying nevertheless, especially with very large packages like kdelibs, where you get spammed with thousands of lines like this.
Created attachment 109164 [details, diff] patch to fix the issue
The patch doesn't work for me because ${T}/debug.sources uses null bytes to delimit path names. I tried the -Z/--null option for grep but that didn't seem to help.
