The exim tools (like exicyclog) need to know where to find gzip/zcat. The ebuild appears to set the wrong path for these. So exicyclog (to take an example) produces errors (/usr/sbin/exicyclog: line 261: /usr/bin/gzip: No such file or directory) The workaround is either to edit exicyclog and change compress=/usr/bin/gzip to compress=/bin/gzip, or to make a symlink I guess. I think the fix is to get the ebuild right. Here's a possible patch: # diff -u exim-4.50.ebuild exim-4.50.ebuild.fix --- exim-4.50.ebuild 2005-03-03 22:24:58.000000000 +0000 +++ exim-4.50.ebuild.fix 2005-07-04 09:46:41.795291431 +0100 @@ -61,8 +61,8 @@ -e "s:# AUTH_CRAM_MD5=yes:AUTH_CRAM_MD5=yes:" \ -e "s:# AUTH_PLAINTEXT=yes:AUTH_PLAINTEXT=yes:" \ -e "s:BIN_DIRECTORY=/usr/exim/bin:BIN_DIRECTORY=/usr/sbin:" \ - -e "s:COMPRESS_COMMAND=/opt/gnu/bin/gzip:COMPRESS_COMMAND=/usr/bin/gzip:" \ - -e "s:ZCAT_COMMAND=/opt/gnu/bin/zcat:ZCAT_COMMAND=/usr/bin/zcat:" \ + -e "s:COMPRESS_COMMAND=/opt/gnu/bin/gzip:COMPRESS_COMMAND=/bin/gzip:" \ + -e "s:ZCAT_COMMAND=/opt/gnu/bin/zcat:ZCAT_COMMAND=/bin/zcat:" \ -e "s:CONFIGURE_FILE=/usr/exim/configure:CONFIGURE_FILE=/etc/exim/exim.conf:" \ -e "s:EXIM_MONITOR=eximon.bin:# EXIM_MONITOR=eximon.bin:" \ -e "s:# INFO_DIRECTORY=/usr/local/info:INFO_DIRECTORY=/usr/share/info:" \
will be fixed anyway, but this is a dup of bug 54909 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 54909 ***
