This error was reproduceable on my machine. I noticed that the configure script is being run twice due to autotools timestamp skews. The first time it is run it creates the po/Makefile which includes: MKINSTALLDIRS = ./mkinstalldirs After the second time it is run, this eventually becomes: MKINSTALLDIRS = $(top_builddir)/./mkinstalldirs which causes make install to fail. Adding the following to the ebuild fixed things nicely: cd ${S} touch aclocal.m4 configure `find . -name Makefile.in`
Where are you adding this? (line #)
Paul, this needs to be added to the gq-0.7.0_beta2.ebuild file. Usually code that modifies the source code is added to the unpack() function: src_unpack() { unpack ${A} # Fix timestamp skews cd ${S} touch aclocal.m4 configure `find . -name Makefile.in` } Alternatively, you can test my fix by placing it in at the start of the src_compile function: src_compile() { cd ${S} touch aclocal.m4 configure `find . -name Makefile.in` local myconf="--enable-browser-dnd --enable-cache" ..... } The important thing is that the times on some of the autotools generated files need to be updated before econf is invoked.
The package has always installed properly for me. Are your clocks broken?
System clock seems to be fine here.
No broken clock here either.
Brandy, Your src_unpack functon fixes this ebuild. As far as the clocks here, they're all sync'd with a local time server and are within seconds of each-other.
Fixed in CVS, thank you.
