• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description jawed hancali 2003-04-06 12:30:17 UTC]

When I emerge metakit, the process fails on the install phase
because it try to create a /usr/include/../lib/Mk4tcl directory 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge metakit

I had this same problem. This ebuild worked like a charm. Thanks a bunch. When will this fix make it into the official portage?

Came to a similar solution using make DESTDIR=${D} install || die.

Glad to see there's a fix for this. It has my vote to be committed (and marked stable while it's at it).
