In all current VMD ebuilds (1.9.2 and 1.9.3), the DISTDIR variable is used in the pkg_nofetch function to indicate where the required distfiles have to be placed. However, DISTDIR does not have a meaningful value in the pkg_* functions (cf. bug 612972 and https://projects.gentoo.org/pms/6/pms.html#x1-120002). This leads to incorrect elog messages like these: * Messages for package sci-chemistry/vmd-1.9.3: * Log file: /var/log/portage/sci-chemistry:vmd-1.9.3:20180809-091428.log * Please download vmd-1.9.3.src.tar.gz from * http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/Download/download.cgi?PackageName=VMD * after agreeing to the license and get * https://dev.gentoo.org/~jlec/distfiles/vmd-1.9.3-gentoo-patches.tar.xz * Place both in /tmp/tmpr0udyhz7/portage/sci-chemistry/vmd-1.9.3/distdir * Messages for package sci-chemistry/vmd-1.9.3: * Log file: /var/log/portage/sci-chemistry:vmd-1.9.3:20180809-091619.log * Fetch failed for 'sci-chemistry/vmd-1.9.3', Log file: * '/var/log/portage/sci-chemistry:vmd-1.9.3:20180809-091619.log' * Please download vmd-1.9.3.src.tar.gz from * http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/Download/download.cgi?PackageName=VMD * after agreeing to the license and get * https://dev.gentoo.org/~jlec/distfiles/vmd-1.9.3-gentoo-patches.tar.xz * Place both in /tmp/portage/sci-chemistry/vmd-1.9.3/distdir I guess the suggested solution would be to refer to the variable by name: https://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/functions/pkg_nofetch/index.html
Created attachment 556520 [details, diff] patch for vmd-1.9.3 ebuild
Created attachment 556522 [details, diff] patch for vmd-1.9.2 ebuild
As just discussed on the Gentoo forum (https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1089908-start-0-postdays-0-postorder-asc-highlight-vmd.html) I am submitting patches for the VMD ebuilds. In both cases DISTDIR is substituted by /usr/portage/distfiles and for vmd 1.9.3 the SRC_URI is changed to vmd-1.9.3.src.tar.gz, because that is what is downloaded from the vmd website (and what the ebuild comments refer to) emerge --info Portage 2.3.51 (python 3.6.5-final-0, default/linux/amd64/17.0/desktop/plasma, gcc-7.3.0, glibc-2.27-r6, 4.14.78-gentoo x86_64)
