Bug 58047 – bug in gnome.org.eclass

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

There seems to be a bug in gnome.org.eclass.

Someone on the mailing list had trouble emerging libxml2, and I found a fix
for it by changing gnome.org.eclass.

It declares a variable without properly declaring the variable as an array. 
The variable is then used in an array fashion in SRC_URI, resulting in a malformed download url. Note that this bug does only occur when fetching the libxml2 sources directly from no.gnome.org, using some mirror that already
had the tarball in its distfiles directory does not trigger the bug...

I am still wondering how the mirrors managed to get the source package though...

I said no.gnome.org but I actually meant any offical gnome mirror.

PVP=(${PV//[-\._]/ })

is a much cleaner patch to the same effect, applying now.
