Bugzilla Bug 177414

new version of maxima compiles fine (with clisp) but emerge dies at line 137 of
the ebuild, in src_install().

changing that line to

einstall || die "einstall failed"

solved the problem for me and maxima emerged fine


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. # layman -a science
2. # echo '=sci-mathematics/maxima-5.12.0' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
3. # emerge maxima

I forgot to say that this ebuild i'm speaking about can be found in science
overlay ( gentooscience.org )

How it fails exactly? I have emerged it with all 4 lisps on x86, and everything
worked fine.

These are the last lines of emerge process, I attached entire log (there's
another, trivial I think, error regarding creation of an already existing dir).

I used this:
onip @ Hal9000 ~ $ eix -Ic clisp
[I] dev-lisp/clisp (2.38-r2(2)@21/03/2007): A portable, bytecode-compiled
implementation of Common Lisp

I don't remember why I installed that revision  (currently ~) of clisp, but it
was because of some build problems I think.

This seems mysterious. On my box, make install works. I compared your log and
my one. The first essential difference is that your log contains the line

/var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/maxima-5.12.0/work/maxima-5.12.0/install-sh -d
/var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/maxima-5.12.0/image//usr/share/maxima/5.12.0/doc/html

twice, followed, naturally, by the error message

mkdir: cannot create directory
`/var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/maxima-5.12.0/image//usr/share/maxima/5.12.0/doc/html':
File exists

My log contains this line once, and make continues as expected. This directory
creation is being done by the Makefile in doc/info, target install-datafiles.
Line 887 of this Makefile is

        $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(genericdir)

and $(genericdir) is /usr/share/maxima/5.12.0/doc/html here. But there is one
such line! It would be interesting if you unpack maxima-5.12.0, cd doc/info,
and 

make -n install-datafiles

Will make try to create /usr/share/maxima/5.12.0/doc/html once or twice? On my
box, it does it once.

What can be the difference between our systems? Maybe, versions of automake?
One suggestion: line 101 of the ebuild performs eautoreconf only if sbcl is
used (and in my case, it is used: I build maxima for clisp, gcl, sbcl, cmucl).
I don't know why. What if you replace this line by unconditional

eautoreconf

and try again?

I changed ebuild leaving just eautoreconf. I got the same error :(

I untarred maxima archive on my Desktop and did

$ ./configure --with-wish=none
$ make
$ cd doc/info
$ make -n install-datafiles

Hope this helps

works fine for me on an x86 with smp and multiple jobs in MAKEOPTS

please consider keywording ~ppc

builds, installs, and executes just fine on ~ppc.

If this works, why not have it in the portage tree? There is something that
prevents this?

Hi Juan,

As soon as I find some time I will have a look at this.

Best,
Markus

Hi

I removed maxima-5.12.0 from the science overlay.
Could you try maxima-5.13.0 from the main tree and report in bug #192449 any
problems during compilation?
