Description Alexander Plank (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-11 14:25:25 UTC
Apps in the games-* categories cannot be merged on OSX. OSX doesn't have a groupadd command so the merge dies when they call the enewgroup function. getent also seems to be missing

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge any game





>>> emerge (1 of 1) games-misc/wtf-20040124 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) wtf-20040124.tar.gz
/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 1: getent: command not found
 * Adding group 'games' to your system ...
/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 1: getent: command not found
 *  - Groupid: 35
/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 667: groupadd: command not found

!!! ERROR: games-misc/wtf-20040124 failed.
!!! Function enewgroup, Line 667, Exitcode 127
!!! enewgroup failed
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

It looks like we can adapt http://www2.dougeverly.com:8080/article.php?story=20031028193713159 and add it to enewuser/enewgroup.

eutils.eclass was fixed several weeks ago.
