Esound-0.2.38 failed to build because of some error when building the documentation. Regardless of the actual error, there should be a doc IUSE flag in the ebuild, because not everyone wants documentation by default. The error is below. Since I do not need the documentation, I made a patch for the ebuild and sources to fix the problem. I would suggest the following patch for media-libs/esound-0.2.38.ebuild: http://vaiprime.visibleassets.com/~cfriedt/esound-0.2.38-ebuild-nodocs.patch And this for the vanilla esound sources: http://vaiprime.visibleassets.com/~cfriedt/esound-0.2.38-nodocs.patch ERROR OUTPUT: make all-recursive make[1]: Entering directory `/home/cfriedt/Desktop/esound-0.2.38' Making all in docs make[2]:

app-text/docbook-sgml-utils builds the docs OK. So here is an alternative with a different and shorter patch and an ebuild patch that fixes #154902 as well.
Created attachment 130107 [details, diff] nodocs for configure.ac
Created attachment 130109 [details, diff] esound-0.2.38.ebuild-doc.patch
(In reply to comment #5) > Created an attachment (id=130109) [edit] > esound-0.2.38.ebuild-doc.patch > Should I test this out? I'm still relatively new to writing and patching ebuilds (in an elegent manner like with configure.ac scripts) ... I'm content with just believing that you have a way better patch then me, so should I close the bug? ... actually Makefile.in, Makefile.am, and configure.in and configure.ac scripts were always a bit of a mystery to me. Can anyone recommend a good faq or tutorial on how to write them?
These patches should work, but they still need some more work. I'll take a swing at it tonight with a clean solution for everybody.
Chris, if you want to learn more about autotools, here's what I used to learn how to use them, it's probably the best written tutorial. http://www-src.lip6.fr/homepages/Alexandre.Duret-Lutz/autotools.html Anyway, I committed a fix for this bug and bug 154902 in esound-0.2.38-r1 (it's in ~arch). Please test it and reopen this bug if it doesn't work. As esound is becoming more and more deprecated, I didn't take the time to write a full configure switch for the documentation. I'll gladly take patches though :) Thanks
