Bugzilla Bug 91962

The scripts installed with speech-tools that (I'm assuming) are supposed to run
the corresponding application just call themselves.

For example (/usr/libexec/speech-tools/wagon):#!/bin/sh

# EST shared script

extend() {
        var="$1"
        extra="$2"
        eval "val=\$$var"

        if [ -n "$val" ]
                then
                val="$extra:$val"
        else
                val="$extra"
        fi
        eval "$var='$val'"
        eval "export $var"
        }

extend LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/usr/lib:"

exec /usr/libexec/speech-tools/wagon "$@"

exit 0

It doesn't even appear that the actual binaries are installed:
$ qpkg -l speech-tools | grep wagon
/usr/share/doc/speech-tools-1.2.3-r2/example_data/wagon.data
/usr/share/doc/speech-tools-1.2.3-r2/example_data/wagon.desc
/usr/share/doc/speech-tools-1.2.3-r2/example_data/wagon.tree
/usr/libexec/speech-tools/wagon
/usr/libexec/speech-tools/wagon_test
/usr/libexec/speech-tools/make_wagon_desc

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge speech-tools
2. try to run a component application
3.

Actual Results:  
The script recurrs until (I'm assuming) ARG_MAX is exceeded.

Expected Results:  
Actually run the tool.

i haven't determined yet why, but whenever i install speech-tools-1.2.3-r2,
emerge will try to install speech-tools-1.2.3-r1 the next time i issue an
"emerge -puD world". as soon as i've installed speech-tools-1.2.3-r1, emerge
wants to install speech-tools-1.2.3-r2. kind of a vicious circle..

That is a bug in portage. I get that here too. I have NO clue why it wants to
install -r1 in the first place, when -r2 is marked stable

festival is the reason for -r1 is getting installed in the first place:
RDEPEND="=app-accessibility/speech-tools-1.2.3-r1"

Created an attachment (id=62542) [details]
speech-tools-1.2.3-r3.ebuild

Could people try the speech-tools-1.2.3-r3.ebuild I posted here. It atleast
installs the binaries now.

compiles on x86. the update problem seems to be solved as well, though i can't
guarantee this as i still seem to have some dependencies that make emerge
downgrade speech-tools when executing "emerge -puD world".

it doesn't get downgraded though neither with "emerge -pu speech-tools" nor with
"emerge -puD speech-tools". i thus assume it's ok.

True, since RDEPEND only makes it depend on that version during emerge, and not
runtime. Festival should be fixed at that point.

In portage.  Thanks.
