Description fuse809 2017-06-03 10:13:08 UTC
I just built sci-chemistry/molsketch-0.4.1 (successfully, no build errors reported) and it gave this QA notice:

* QA Notice: Symbolic link /usr/bin/molsketch points to /usr/bin/molsketch-qt5 which does not exist.

This seems to be confirmed by the fact that ls -ld /usr/bin/molsketch* returns:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Jun  3 20:06 /usr/bin/molsketch -> molsketch-qt5

as opposed to what I would expect if this link was valid which would be roughly:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13  Jun  3 20:06 /usr/bin/molsketch -> molsketch-qt5
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 300 Jun  3 20:06 /usr/bin/molsketch-qt5

So this program is installed but there's no way to launch it, seems like a bug to me.

Thank you. 
I can confirm that.

There is a warning during the install phase:

>>> Installing (3 of 3) sci-chemistry/molsketch-0.4.1::gentoo
 * QA Notice: Symbolic link /usr/bin/molsketch points to /usr/bin/molsketch-qt5 which does not exist.

It should be fixed, however I was able to start it with 

$ molsketch-qt5
