Overview: ========= Emerging dev-ruby/libxml leaves out the shared object libxml_so.so, so Ruby programs using the library will inevitably fail because they can't find the file. Steps to Reproduce: =================== 1. Install the library: emerge =dev-ruby/libxml-0.3.8 2. Run the tests that come with it (or any other Ruby code that happens to use libxml): > cd /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/libxml-ruby-0.3.8/tests/ > ruby runner.rb 3. Weep at the error message: /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- xml/libxml_so (LoadError) from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require' from ./libxml_test.rb:2 from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require' from runner.rb:5 Actual Results: =============== The library wasn't installed propperly (namely: missing at least the file libxml_so.so) Expected Results: ================= The library should have been installed completely so that it can be used. Additional Builds and Platforms: ================================ Also occurrs on dev-ruby/libxml-0.3.6 (although the missing shared object is named differently: libxml.so) Additional Information: ======================= During emerge the shared objects is compiled, but apparently not installed: [...] checking for libxml/xmlversion.h... yes checking for xmlDocFormatDump() in -lxml2... yes checking for docbCreateFileParserCtxt()... yes creating extconf.h creating Makefile make i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -I. -I. -I/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux -I. -I/usr/include/libxml2 -DRUBY_EXTCONF_H=\"extconf.h\" -fPIC -O3 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -Wall -I. -I/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux -I. -I/usr/include/libxml2 -c ruby_xml_xpath.c [...] i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -I. -I. -I/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux -I. -I/usr/include/libxml2 -DRUBY_EXTCONF_H=\"extconf.h\" -fPIC -O3 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -Wall -I. -I/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux -I. -I/usr/include/libxml2 -c ruby_xml_input_cbg.c i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -shared -Wl,-export-dynamic -L'/usr/lib' -Wl\,-R'/usr/lib' -L'/usr/lib' -Wl\,-R'/usr/lib' -o libxml_so.so ruby_xml_xpath.o ruby_xml_node_set.o ruby_xml_attr.o ruby_xml_parser.o ruby_xml_node.o ruby_xml_document.o ruby_xml_dtd.o ruby_xml_xpointer_context.o ruby_xml_parser_context.o ruby_xml_xpointer.o ruby_xml_ns.o libxml.o ruby_xml_schema.o ruby_xml_sax_parser.o ruby_xml_tree.o ruby_xml_attribute.o ruby_xml_xinclude.o ruby_xml_xpath_context.o cbg.o ruby_xml_input_cbg.o -Wl\,-R -Wl\,/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -L. -lruby18 -lxml2 -lxml2 -lc -lz -lm -lnsl -ldl -lcrypt -lm -lc make install make: Nothing to be done for `install'. make clean Successfully installed libxml-ruby, version 0.3.8 Installing ri documentation for libxml-ruby-0.3.8...

Created attachment 90842 [details] log of the emerge dev-ruby/libxml This is the complete log I get on the shell when emerging the package
I can't reproduce this. What rubygems version did you use?
Please reply within three days, or this bug will be closed as NEEDINFO.
Please re-open if you continue to have problems with this ebuild. Please note that version 0.3.8.4 is also in CVS and doesn't directly require rubygems.
