[Description Max Bane 2004-04-20 14:17:24 UTC]

I just emerged smlnj-110.43 (no previous version was installed), and trying to
execute `sml' exits immediately with the following error:
/usr/bin/sml: line 1: /usr/bin/.arch-n-opsys: No such file or directory
sml: unable to determine architecture/operating system

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. su
2. emerge smlnj
3. exit
4. smlnj

Actual Results:  
/usr/bin/sml: line 1: /usr/bin/.arch-n-opsys: No such file or directory 
sml: unable to determine architecture/operating system 

Expected Results:  
Started an interactive Standard ML prompt.

Sorry, step 4 above should just read "sml".

Run env-update and retry, it should work right then. I'll add an einfo in the ebuild.

That did it. Thanks.

I forgot to add the notice to smlnj-110.42, now done.

I just removed 110.42 from CVS but added two others with the notice.
