Description Matt Brown 2004-06-23 10:38:59 UTC
exicyclog has this setting:
compress=/usr/bin/gzip

however gzip is located here:
/bin/gzip

To fix, edit line 63 of exim-4.34-r1.ebuild from
COMPRESS_COMMAND=/usr/bin/gzip
to
COMPRESS_COMMAND=/bin/gzip


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge exim
2. open /usr/sbin/exicyclog (it's a shell script) and look for compress=
3. or run /usr/sbin/exicyclog to get error message

Actual Results:  
/usr/sbin/exicyclog: line 242: /usr/bin/gzip: No such file or directory 
/usr/sbin/exicyclog: line 246: /usr/bin/gzip: No such file or directory 

Expected Results:  
path should be /bin/gzip

what package is this for, please?
Comment 2 Matt Brown 2004-06-23 11:30:19 UTC
mail-mta/exim

current ebuild is exim-4.34-r1.ebuild
I've had this problem with previous exim ebuilds as well.
Comment 3 Colin Morey (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-23 14:37:58 UTC
Will fix for -r2.
Comment 4 Maurice van der Pot (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-15 09:50:44 UTC
Latest is exim-4.50-r1.ebuild. Colin, I suppose this has been fixed?
Comment 5 Matt Brown 2005-07-15 10:50:34 UTC
It is not fixed in mail-mta/exim-4.50-r1 
 
I believe this bug was fixed shortly after being reported, but was then  
re-introduced in the following exim ebuilds.  
Comment 6 Colin Morey (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-15 13:18:46 UTC
latest is -r2 (at the moment)
I'll get this fixed again for 4.51 which should be in the tree tonight (maybe, if not hopefully this weekend)
Comment 7 Colin Morey (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-15 13:52:14 UTC
aww *swears*. sorry guys, i thought i'd fixed this, but i can't see any evidence of it,  expect a fix tonight ~ 
masked 4.52 for x86.

Comment 9 Martin Hierling 2005-10-19 22:59:04 UTC
Again, this has NOT been fixed! Every update the same handwork!

Comment 10 Colin Morey (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-10-20 11:36:49 UTC
no idea how this one got missed, updated 4.54 is in the tree (no -r bump, the fix is a bit too minor.)
Comment 11 Colin Morey (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-06 14:20:13 UTC
Closing, no further complatins
Comment 12 Colin Morey (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-06 14:21:35 UTC

Comment 13 Colin Morey (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-06 14:22:26 UTC
closing, (sorry for the spurious emails.)
