Bug 29508 – USE="-X" emerge pdv fails due to incorrect line in ebuild.

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Brandy Westcott (RETIRED) 2003-09-24 06:20:42 UTC]

Without X in our USE flags, pdv will not be installed: 
 
	>>> Install pdv-1.5.1 into /var/tmp/portage/pdv-1.5.1/image/ 
	    category app-arch 
 
	!!! ERROR: app-arch/pdv-1.5.1 failed. 
	!!! Function src_install, Line 25, Exitcode 1 
	!!! (no error message) 
 
This is due to the following line present in the ebuild: 
 
	use X && dobin X11/xmpdvmkpkg || die 
 
It's better to use something like: 
 
	if [ `use X` ] ; then 
		dobin X11/xmpdvmkpkg || die 
	fi
