Description Michael Schnake 2004-04-16 02:12:39 UTC 
The timidity++-2.13.0_rc2.ebuild has a misplaced quotation mark in RDEPEND=...
at
<snip>                                         
oggvorbis? ( >=media-libs/libvorbis-1.0_beta4 )"
</snip>
resulting in diverse error when portage tries to parse that ebuild.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Same probleme here:

Comment 2 Sascha Silbe 2004-04-16 02:55:38 UTC 
Please change severity to critical since it breaks Portage.
Comment 3 Michael Schnake 2004-04-16 02:57:42 UTC 
Bumped up priority and severity.
Comment 4 Colin Tinker 2004-04-16 03:27:02 UTC 
tcltk? ( >=dev-lang/tk-8.1 )" is at line 32 replace it with:-

tcltk? ( >=dev-lang/tk-8.1 ) removing the ".

This fixes the problem.
Comment 5 Michael Schnake 2004-04-16 03:42:28 UTC 
Hmmm... As stated above, my ebuild has the superfluous double quote at line 31:
oggvorbis? ( >=media-libs/libvorbis-1.0_beta4 )"

Or is there really a new ebuild thats "improved" by moving the error down on line? Well, this certainly is a trivial one, but it still will confuse people who are not used to look at or even edit the ebuilds themself if their "emerge world" breaks with those bold red errors ;-)
Comment 6 Sascha Silbe 2004-04-16 03:52:45 UTC 
Editing the ebuild yourself only helps till the next "emerge sync", so it needs to get fixed "upstream" (i.e. in the official Portage tree).
Comment 7 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-16 22:32:47 UTC 
Should be fixed now.
