Description johndoe49322 2013-06-23 02:33:18 UTC 
(As discussed on #gentoo-prefix around 20130623 midnight UTC.)

A gentoo-prefix run on Linux resulted in dev-libs/glib emerge in stage3 failing due to libffi.so* being installed in EPREFIX/usr/lib64 instead of EPREFIX/usr/lib.

Someone wiser than I said:

> nothing should install to ${EPREFIX}/usr/lib64...
> the correct (temporary) fix would be to mv ${EPREFIX}/usr/lib64/* ${EPREFIX}/usr/lib; rmdir ${EPREFIX}/usr/lib64; ln -s lib ${EPREFIX}/usr/lib64

and...

> in an ideal world, there is no lib64 at all
> that's the ideal world situation, libffi not installing to lib64 when it should have been configured with --libdir=$EPREFIX/usr/lib

Looks like it to me.  Please reopen if problem persists.
