Description Paul Merlin 2011-07-05 20:11:00 UTC 
app-emulation/virtualbox-9999 doesn't depend on app-arch/makeself. Therefore, when merging virtualbox-9999 configure fails. Even if you merge makeself it will still fail because app-arch/makeself provides makeself.sh and virtualbox-9999 expects makeself

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -av =virtualbox-9999
Actual Results:  
The configure fails.

Expected Results:  
It should have depended upon app-arch/makeself and the configure script should be edited to look for makeself AND makeself.sh
Comment 1 Paul Merlin 2011-07-05 20:13:54 UTC 
The fix is easy. 

ln -snf /usr/bin/makeself.sh /usr/bin/makeself
Comment 2 Paul Merlin 2011-07-05 20:14:09 UTC 
After merging makeself, obviously
Comment 3 Patrick Lauer gentoo-dev 2011-11-09 19:20:12 UTC 
 * Contents of app-arch/makeself-2.1.5-r1:
/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/makeself -> makeself.sh


I fixed that a short while ago already :)
