Created attachment 470288 [details, diff] Patch to not delete gn in case of error I had a hard time debugging a problem within gn: A tool needed to bild chromium. The problem is that it gets builded to /var/tmp/portage/www-client/chromium-[VERSION]/work/temp/ and deleted by the chromium buildscripts in any case. This makes it hard to impossible to debug gn (in case it sigsegfaults it gets deleted, for example). A patch changing this is attached. This patch will bulild gn at /var/tmp/portage/www-client/chromium-[VERSION]/work/chromium-[VERSION]/out_bootstrap/ which will not get deleted. Some more information (why this was a problem for me and how the solution was found) at https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1062310-start-0-postdays-0-postorder-asc-highlight-.html
