It works when I set MAKEOPTS to "-j1".

[Comment 3 Tobias Heinlein (RETIRED) 2009-01-02 00:52:01 UTC]

Well, it doesn't quite fix the issue, but I get a different output now. See attachment.

[Comment 4 Tobias Heinlein (RETIRED) 2009-01-02 00:54:10 UTC]

By the way, you should be able to reproduce it by unmerging splashutils first. (If it's already installed, it works because it finds the lib. That's probably also why nobody encounters this bug, because upgrading works without problems when e.g. 1.5.4.2 is already present.)

Updated patch to fix the dependencies in the Makefile.

Here's an updated version of the patch.  I was unable to reproduce the problem even after uninstalling splashutils, but I think I figured out the missing dependency.

Created attachment 177135 [details, diff]
A patch for the splashutils ebuild.

Please apply this diff to the ebuild to use the previously uploaded patch.

Yes, that fixes it. Good work. :)

Thanks :) The fix is now included in CVS.
