Description James Dominy 2013-10-20 11:37:51 UTC 
Problem:
Emerging app-doc/tldp-howto-20120707.ebuild with USE flag "text" fails during the install phase

Steps to produce:

1. As root, emerge app-doc/tldp-howto-20120707 with

$ USE="text" emerge "app-doc/tldp-howto-20120707"

Actual Result:

install fails with the following error message:

/usr/bin/install: cannot stat ‘/var/tmp/portage/app-doc/tldp-howto-20120707/work/tldp-howto-20120707/*’: No such file or directory
!!! doins: /var/tmp/portage/app-doc/tldp-howto-20120707/work/tldp-howto-20120707/* does not exist

Expected result:

Emerge should not fail

Reproducible: Always

Additional Info:

Output from emerge --info and the build log are attached separately

There is an explicit "rm -r "${S}"/text" in src install if USE flag "text" is set. If I comment this out, installation works. There's a patch posted as a separate attachment too.

I can't remember why text was handled differently in the first place.  Seems to work fine now.
