Bug 562436 – sys-devel/llvm-3.7.0-r1: weird 'lib' symlink in python-sitedir

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Michał Górny 2015-10-06 20:27:25 UTC]

>>> /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/lib -> ../../../lib

Quite wrong and pointless, I guess.

Too bad these are not handled by the build system, the problematic function is make_symlink_liblldb() in tools/lldb/scripts/Python/finishSwigPythonLLDB.py

Not very happy about the patch+sed fix, but at least this fixes the bug.

Included in 3.7.0-r2 (masked until it gets the ocaml fixes too)
