Created attachment 388394 [details, diff] patch to add subslot support to make_desktop_entry The proposed patch is to add subslot support to make_desktop_entry in eclass/eutils.eclass, so that ebuilds that use a subslot like: SLOT="0/${PV}" Can call make_desktop_entry. Without the proposed patch it fails as the / for the subslot is interpreted as a non-existing sub directory: /var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/coq-8.4_p5/temp/environment: line 1506: /var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/coq-8.4_p5/temp/coqide-coq-0/8.4_p5.desktop: No such file or directory /usr/bin/install: cannot stat ‘/var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/coq-8.4_p5/temp/coqide-coq-0/8.4_p5.desktop’: No such file or directory !!! doins: /var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/coq-8.4_p5/temp/coqide-coq-0/8.4_p5.desktop does not exist * ERROR: sci-mathematics/coq-8.4_p5::x-portage failed (install phase): * doins failed sci-mathematics/coq is a compiler, it should be in SLOT="0/${PV}" so that reverse dependencies like sci-mathematics/ssreflect will be rebuilt when coq is upgraded. sci-mathematics/coq calls make_desktop_entry.
i've gone with a slightly diff patch: http://sources.gentoo.org/eclass/eutils.eclass?r1=1.439&r2=1.440 please re-open if it no workie ;)
