Hi, I have set up my machines to not use sys-apps/hal so the package is not installed at all. But the /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kdeeject script currently provided by kde-base/kdialog-3.5.9-r1 doesn't work without hal due to some bad shell code. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. quickpkg --include-config=y sys-apps/hal && emerge -C sys-apps/hal 2. run (for example) kdeeject /dev/dvd 3.) see kdeeject spitting out the below mentioned errormessages and actually doing nothing concerning ejecting the media... Actual Results: me@barcelona:~> kdeeject /dev/dvd which: no hal-find-by-property in (/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.2.4:/usr/kde/3.5/bin:/usr/qt/3/bin:/usr/games/bin:/home/me/bin) /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kdeeject: line 32: hal-find-by-property: command not found /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kdeeject: line 33: hal-find-by-property: command not found /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kdeeject: line 35: test: too many arguments me@barcelona:~> (and no media was ejected) Expected Results: me@barcelona:~> kdeeject /dev/dvd me@barcelona:~> (media was ejected) barcelona:~ # emerge --info Portage 2.1.5.6 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop, gcc-4.2.4, glibc-2.7-r2, 2.6.25.17 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.25.17 x86_64 Quad-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2354 Timestamp of tree: Tue, 09 Sep 2008 18:00:02 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p39 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.1.6-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.5.2-r7 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.0 sys-apps/openrc: 0.2.5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r3 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.62-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.1-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6a_pre virtual/os-headers: 2.6.25-r4 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=opteron -mtune=opteron -O2 -finline-functions -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/X11/Sessions /etc/X11/app-defaults /etc/X11/xinit /etc/bash_completion.d /etc/bonobo-activation /etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/cups /etc/dbus-1 /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/eselect/compiler /etc/fish /etc/fonts /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/foomatic /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/gimp /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0 /etc/gtk /etc/gtk-2.0 /etc/hotplug /etc/hotplug.d /etc/imlib /etc/init.d /etc/iproute2 /etc/nas /etc/ntop /etc/pam.d /etc/pango /etc/profile.d /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sasl2 /etc/sgml /etc/ssl /etc/ssmtp /etc/t1lib /etc/terminfo /etc/udev/rules.d /etc/xinetd.d /etc/xml /etc/zsh" CXXFLAGS="-march=opteron -mtune=opteron -O2 -finline-functions -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--alphabetical --with-bdeps=y" FEATURES="ccache collision-protect distlocks parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/gentoo-mirror ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1,--hash-style=gnu,--sort-common,--as-needed" LINGUAS="de" MAKEOPTS="-j7" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://192.168.0.254/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3dnowext X a52 aac acpi alsa amd64 amd64codecs asf avi berkdb branding bzip2 cairo cdparanoia cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dvd dvdr dvdread emboss encode fam ffmpeg flac gdbm gif gnutls gpg gtk gtk2 iconv idn imagemagick imlib isdnlog jpeg kde kdehiddenvisibility lame libwww mad midi mikmod mjpeg mmx mmxext mp3 mpeg mudflap multilib ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ogg oggvorbis opengl pam pcre pdf png pppd qt3 qt3support quicktime readline reflection sdl session silc slang smp spell spl sse sse2 ssl startup-notification svg sysfs tga theora threads tiff truetype usb v4l2 vcd vorbis x264 xcomposite xml xml2 xorg xprint xulrunner xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1 hda-intel" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" KERNEL="linux" LINGUAS="de" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nv nvidia" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Created attachment 165055 [details, diff] kdeeject-3.5.9-use-without-hal-fix.diff How about this possible fix? It actually works but I don't know if this fix is all POSIX sh conform...
