OK, there's actually no error message here from within the build process - for me, the ebuild just "dies" with an "install failed" error, but no error message is seen from the actual build. The compile completes file, but it fails after the "make install" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. (unmask media-tv/mythtv-0.17) 2. emerge -uD world 3. Actual Results: (see attachment for large cut of output) <big snip> cp -f "mythfrontend_fi.qm" "/var/tmp/portage/mythtv-0.17/image//usr/share/mythtv /i18n/" cp -f "mythfrontend_zh_tw.qm" "/var/tmp/portage/mythtv-0.17/image//usr/share/myt htv/i18n/" make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/mythtv-0.17/work/mythtv-0.17/i18n' !!!

Created attachment 51033 [details] Large snip from failed emerge (let me know if you want full output)
OK! I think I found the problem. In /usr/portage/eclass/myth.eclass, around line 53: myth_src_install() { einstall INSTALL_ROOT="${D}" for doc in "AUTHORS COPYING FAQ UPGRADING ChangeLog README"; do test -e "${doc}" && dodoc ${doc} done } needs to be changed to this: myth_src_install() { einstall INSTALL_ROOT="${D}" for doc in AUTHORS COPYING FAQ UPGRADING ChangeLog README; do test -e "${doc}" && dodoc ${doc} done } (i.e. remove the quotes around the list of files to loop through) HTH!
Fixed in CVS.
