Description Michael Haubenwallner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-12-11 12:46:09 UTC 
When upgrading binutils from 2.18.50.0.2 to 2.18.50.0.3 (on x86-solaris2.10) I get an error which (although in prefix) seems to be related to feature 'preserve-libs' (detailed error and 'emerge --info' attached).

It seems portage wants to preserve a sharedlib in a directory containing $PV, which (not surprisingly) does not exist in the new package any more, but does not create the old directory in the new package.

Looks like Zac fixed it already in r9230

ah, stupid, indeed, this bug was fixed when I hit the same problem on FreeBSD :)
