Bug 305827 – php5_2-sapi.eclass use "find" in an incompatible manner

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Naohiro Aota 2010-02-19 08:47:30 UTC]

eclass/php5_2-sapi.eclass use "find" like this: "$(find -name '*.m4')"
But this is not work with FreeBSD "find". We cannot omit the directory to search.

This bug make "emerge php" not to finish nor abort. Emerge output so
many "y". It might fulfil the whole disk space.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge >=sys-devel/autoconf-2.64
2.emerge =php-5.2.12

Actual Results:  
emerge not finish nor abort.

php-5.2.12 build.log

There were much more "y"s at the bottom of the file.

What's the correct usage then?
find . -name '*.m4'?

yes, replacing the command with "find . -name '*.m4'", I was able to emerge php.

patch for the eclass file.

Since I applied this patch, php has properly been emerge'd on both Linux and FreeBSD.
Please apply this patch.

IMHO, omitting search directories on calling find is a common stupid mistake. FYI, eclass/toolchain-binutils.eclass does t3h job.
