ut2004-data does not install on my amd64 system. Here's the emerge output: >>> Emerging (1 of 5) games-fps/ut2004-data-3186-r3 to / * checking ebuild checksums ;-) ...

Additional details can be found in this forum topic: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-4016434.html $CD_ROOT_1 (and 2-6) are all properly set, and linux-installer.sh does absolutely exist in that path: # ls -l $CD_ROOT_1/linux-installer.sh -rwxr-xr-x 1 user user 29627139 Apr 15 20:00 /home/user/ut2004/CD1/linux-installer.sh The error appears to be coming from the unpack_makeself() and/or find_unpackable_file() functions in eutils.class, as PaulBradbury suggested. However, I haven't had any luck trying to troubleshoot this. Any modification to eutils.eclass slows down my emerge commands by 13471% (sadly, that's not a typo), so even basic troubleshooting steps such as adding echo commands becomes a tedious process. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: emerge ut2004-data on amd64 Actual Results: Install fails with above error message Expected Results: Install should succeed
well, after 2+ years of failure with this, I reinstalled Gentoo on my box last week and tried installing it again. Amazingly, it installed on the first try. Guess there's no sense in leaving this out here anymore.
