Bug 465746 – app-text/texlive-core : does not respect RANLIB

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Agostino Sarubbo 2013-04-13 07:25:53 UTC]

You receive this bug because this package does not respect my system's RANLIB (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ranlib) and calls directly /usr/bin/ranlib
The possible solutions to fix this issue are:
1)Fix the buildsystem, if you can;
2)inherit toolchain-funcs and use tc-export RANLIB
3)inherit toolchain-funcs and use emake RANLIB="$(tc-getRANLIB)"


From the build log:

ranlib libicudata.a

This simple change for the ebuild fixes the issue for me. 
However, this problem only occurs when the internal icu gets build and looking at bug 265232 it seems that only xetex still needs the internal icu.
