Bug 374575 – sys-auth/libfprint fails on removing 64-bit file on 32-bit host

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alexander Adam 2011-07-09 17:46:18 UTC]

Hello,

in the libfprint-ebuilds there is a step in the install-routine:

if ! use static-libs ; then$
    rm -v "${D}"/usr/lib64/libfprint.la || die$
fi

this step is done regardless of the architecture the package is build on.
My machine s a 32 bit intel machine and the reffered directory is not created during the build. So building is done and then the install fails.

Could you "just" add a test, if the directory even exists or if the architecture is 64 bit? Currently I solved the problem by setting "static-libs" use flag, so the command is not executed, I think that is not the way it is meant to be.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. build libfprint
Actual Results:  
Build fails

Expected Results:  
Build succeeds.

workaround - add use flag "static-libs"
