Description Mira Ressel 2012-03-25 18:38:47 UTC
Since 2.49a, the blender ebuilds contain a small syntax error in src_compile which leads to inaccurate error reporting. It's only a cosmetic issue though.

The old (good) syntax in =media-gfx/blender-2.48a-r3 was:
    escons || die \
    "!!! Please add ${S}/scons.config when filing bugs reports to bugs.gentoo.org"

The new, errorneous syntax since >=media-gfx/blender-2.49a is:
    escons || die \
    '!!! Please add "${S}/scons.config" when filing bugs reports \
    to bugs.gentoo.org'

The error is obvious: The ${S} and the \ don't work inside the '', the string is printed literally.

Reproducible: Always

Okay as of 2.63a-r1 the || die is gone, so, considering obsolete.
