Bug 10858 – running `ebuild <ebuild> install` and WORKDIR is recreated, initial directory of src_install is wrong

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description SpanKY 2002-11-17 00:34:26 UTC]

see the attachement ... 
 
during the first run, initial directory of src_install is ${S} (like it should be) 
but after recreating the WORKDIR, the initial directory is 
${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/portage/${PF}/build-info

Are you using FEATURES="noauto"?

asr-manpages-1.3_rc5.ebuild

if you try to just emerge this ebuild, then you get same problem as above ...
also, i have noauto in FEATURES ...

hmm i lied about the asr-manpages ebuild ... its an issue of where it couldnt cd into 
${S} ... 
 
think maybe a warning could be displayed for when ${S} doesnt exist ?

Re-open if this is an issue (I suspect it's been fixed a long while back).
