Bug 458038 – dev-util/dialog-1.2.20121230 USE=examples - find: `samples/copifuncs': No such file or directory

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Branko Majic 2013-02-17 21:20:02 UTC]

There is a problem when building the latest dev-util/dialog with the 'doc' USE flag. The reason for this is that the ebuild is referencing some samples that are _not_ available in the latest package distribution (subdirectory 'copifunc' from the 'samples' directory)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable the 'doc' USE flag for package dev-util/dialog
2. Try to install the latest dev-util/dialog (version 1.2.20121230)
Actual Results:  
The package was installed successfully.

Expected Results:  
The package installation has failed.

Here's a short excerpt from the build error:

Error:
  * In program cave perform install --hooks --managed-output --output-exclusivity with-others =dev-util/dialog-1.2.20121230:0::gentoo --destination installed --replacing =dev-util/dialog-1.1.20120706:0::installed --x-of-y 1 of 1:
