New beta is out Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 122129 [details] Fixed ebuild The file names changed a bit attached the fixed ebuild
Please, don't file 0day bugs (let alone for beta stuff), it's considered pretty rude and also completely unneeded. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/bugzilla-howto.xml#doc_chap6 (Zero-day bump requests).
There is a skype-1.4.0.74-ebuild in portage now. But it's broken. 1) it still installs the libdbus symlink which is unneeded for skype 1.4.0.74 AFAIK (also see comment #8 from bug 179568) 2) it's broken for USE="static". I get the following errors: >>> Install skype-1.4.0.74 into /var/tmp/portage/net-im/skype-1.4.0.74/image/ category net-im install: cannot stat `skype': No such file or directory install: cannot stat `sounds/*.wav': No such file or directory chown: cannot access `/var/tmp/portage/net-im/skype-1.4.0.74/image//opt/skype/skype': No such file or directory >>> Completed installing skype-1.4.0.74 into /var/tmp/portage/net-im/skype-1.4.0.74/image/
There are separate bugs for the borkage.
