After emerge'ing ANT I excepted the ANT_HOME variable to be present but it wasn't. Now I am new to Gentoo so perhaps this is the norm but it would be nice if this was set because I have some install scripts which depend on it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge dev-java/ant 2. echo $ANT_HOME 3. Actual Results: variable not set Expected Results: variable should be set to installed location of ant.
I can confirm this problem. Ant_home should be added to the env.d files somewhere...
Moving this again to java@gentoo.org, so everyone out there can help.
ant-1.6.0-r2 ebuild should solve this problem. For now 1.6.0-r2 its available on testing.
