I'm working with the same version but I can't get past ./configure: creating cache ./config.cache checking for a BSD compatible install... /bin/install -c checking for python... /usr/bin/python checking for python version >= 1.5.2... 2.2.1 ok checking for gnome-python... failed: get it from ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/stable/latest/sources/ As you can see it's not finding gnome-python, which I do have installed: Latest version Available: 1.4.1-r4 Latest version Installed: 1.4.1-r4 I've been through the configure script for eroaster to examine the test for the existance of gnome-python, and it's looking for a gnome.ui python module: from configure: PYGNOME=`python -c "from gnome.ui import *" 2>&1` PYGNOMEEXISTS=`echo $PYGNOME|grep -i "no module"` if test "$PYGNOMEEXISTS" != "" then echo failed: get it from ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/stable/latest/sources/ exit 1 else echo yes fi Running 'python -c "from gnome.ui import *" 2>&1' manually produces: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in ?

Ok, I've fixed the bug reported in my last comment (will explain below) and can now confirm the bug mentioned in the original post. I would copy/paste but it is the exact same sandbox violation. -- The following may need to go into a seperate bug? --> My original error concerning gnome-python was being caused by an akward handling of USE variables that I'm not quite sure how to gracefully fix in the long run. Eroaster depends on gnome-python which provides python with the pygnome and pygtk modules. To be specific, it is the pygnome module that eroaster needs. I am an avid Fluxbox user and have, among other things, "-gnome" in my USE. If you look at the gnome-python ebuild you'll find that by default it builds the pygtk module, but only builds the pygnome module if "gnome" is in your USE. So with my "-gnome" setting gnome-python still emerges fine, but without creating a needed module that a future package depends on, hence the previous error i was getting. Since I'm not a huge Gnome user, I'm not the best source to know if this may be effecting other packages. I guess it's possible to simply remove the USE flag test and force gnome-python to build the pygnome module. This would of course fix eroaster, but add a quantitative ammount of bloat to the system.
1) you can completely remove the "emake || die" line from the eroaster ebuilds. It's odd, but if you've ever compiled eroaster you'd notice that it doesn't require a 'make' and you progress straight into the 'make install' 2) Eroaster doesn't seem to respect DESTDIR at all, which also oddly shows up in the ebuild. Corrected (and personally tested) new ebuild script follows below. mkeadle
Created attachment 2217 [details] Corrected eroaster-2.0.12.ebuild script
Does 2.1.0 work for you? If so, i'm closing this bug.
Does 2.1.0 (masked) work for you??
so though eroaster is masked is the ebuild safe?
Have you tested it, and compiled it succesfully? If so, please let me know
2.1.0-r1 should fix this for you.
