@qt: have you already fixed this in your eclass? (aka are we behind?) otherwise, can you please use an xargs in this case such that this error will not pop up again? It could be as simple as: { echo "${S}"/mkspecs/common/*.conf ; find "${S}" -name '*.pr[io]' } | xargs sed -i -e "s:\$\$\[QT_INSTALL_LIBS\]:${EPREFIX}/usr/$(get_libdir)/qt4:g" || die; Note that a "${S}"/mkspecs/common/*.conf must exist, or sed will try to change the file "${S}/mkspecs/common/*.conf". You may want to check that upfront.
/tmp/portage/x11-libs/qt-assistant-4.6.0-r1/temp/environment gets replaced by emerge any time it gets run, wouldn't know how to modify it...
I fixed this in the prefix tree now.
@qt: I think we should fix this in qt4-build.eclass too...
I am sort of time now, so pleas provide the fix using a patch format so I can fix it immediately. Thanks
sorry, forgot to attach the diff: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/alt/changeset?new=trunk%2Fprefix-overlay%2Feclass%2Fqt4-build.eclass%4055618&old=trunk%2Fprefix-overlay%2Feclass%2Fqt4-build.eclass%4055564
