Bug 105355 – net-print/poster ebuild needs chmod

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Marcin Gryszkalis 2005-09-09 03:35:22 UTC]

The directory in tarball is extracted with d--------- rights, so the build fails. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:





The required change is:

--- /root/poster-0.1.ebuild.oryginal    2005-09-09 06:19:18.000000000 +0200
+++ poster-0.1.ebuild   2005-09-09 06:19:43.000000000 +0200

        unpack ${A}
+       chmod u+rwx ./poster
        cd ${S}
        tar -zxf ./poster.tar.gz || die "tar failed"
 }

It installed fine for me.  Maybe the tarball was updated?  Try removing it from
$DISTDIR and re-emerging?

[Comment 2 Marcin Gryszkalis 2005-09-09 14:42:21 UTC]

Wouldn't it fail on md5 check if the tarball was changed?

hq distfiles # md5sum poster.tgz

hq distfiles # tar -tzvf poster.tgz

Not if you haven't sync'd since they updated it.

[Comment 4 Marcin Gryszkalis 2005-09-10 00:54:59 UTC]

In this case oryginal tarball is really old (~1999?). Can you check md5sum on
your tgz and check the contents?

[Comment 5 steveb 2005-10-09 16:02:42 UTC]

I have exactly the same issue with the ebuild as Marcin Gryszkalis. I resynced 
the portage and deleted the file from the distfiles, but the problem still 
stays. 

[Comment 6 Marcin Gryszkalis 2005-10-11 04:22:29 UTC]

The patch I posted in comment is working (steve - maybe you could test it and
confirm) - couldn't someone commit it?

[Comment 7 Andrzej 2005-10-30 01:52:04 UTC]

I can confirm that I see the same thing on my notebook (as of Oct 30, synced today).

[Comment 8 Paul Worrall 2005-12-07 14:49:10 UTC]

You see this problem only if you have the userpriv feature selected 

[Comment 9 steveb 2005-12-29 18:45:21 UTC]

Disabling userpriv helps :)

thanks, I added the chmod to the ebuild
