• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ulrich Müller 2007-12-18 14:14:29 UTC]

Fails parallel install, not always reproducible.

>>> Install detox-1.2.0_rc3 into /var/tmp/portage/app-misc/detox-1.2.0_rc3/image/ category app-misc
/usr/bin/install -c -m 755 -d /var/tmp/portage/app-misc/detox-1.2.0_rc3/image//usr/bin
/usr/bin/install -c -m 755 -d /var/tmp/portage/app-misc/detox-1.2.0_rc3/image//usr/share/man/man1
/usr/bin/install -c -m 755 -d /var/tmp/portage/app-misc/detox-1.2.0_rc3/image//usr/share/man/man5
/usr/bin/install -c -m 755 -d /var/tmp/portage/app-misc/detox-1.2.0_rc3/image//etc
/usr/bin/install: cannot create directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-misc/detox-1.2.0_rc3/image//etc': File exists

 * ERROR: app-misc/detox-1.2.0_rc3 failed.
 * Call stack:
 *               ebuild.sh, line   46:  Called src_install
 *             environment, line 2032:  Called die
 * The specific snippet of code:
 *       emake DESTDIR="${D}" install || diefunc "$FUNCNAME" "$LINENO" "$?" "emake install failed";
 *  The die message:
 *   emake install failed

After this, ${D}/etc is not a directory, but a file (namely ${S}/detoxrc).

Created attachment 138817 [details, diff]
detox-1.2.0_rc3-install.patch

This should hopefully fix it.

Fixed by using emake -j1, as discussed with armin76 on IRC.
