After merging, baselayout ebuild sources mklinks.sh which does things like "ln -s 'lib64' '///lib' [...]". This will obviously create /lib/lib64 link pointing to itself. I guess you guys take it for OK, but it breaks at least prelink (as in bug 82117), not to mention leaving dead cycles around. Maybe twiddle ln options, adding -n -f, or guard it with a [[ ! -e ... ]]? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge baselayout 2. strace prelink 3. hunt down dead lib/lib64 -> lib cycles around, or sensless ones like /var/tmp/tmp -> /var/tmp Actual Results: Funky symlinks. Expected Results: No funky symlinks.
