A given ebuild with EAPI-6 and missing mimeinfo cache update reports: * QA Notice: .desktop files with MimeType= were found installed * but desktop mimeinfo cache has not been updated: * /usr/share/applications/ghostwriter.desktop * Please make sure to call xdg_desktop_database_update() * in pkg_postinst() and pkg_postrm() phases of appropriate pkgs. However, the same ebuild, only with EAPI-7, does not trigger the QA warning.
Yay, figured out the problem. It was the trailing slash change after all: cd "${EROOT}" || die (which started evaluating to 'cd' ;-))
The bug has been referenced in the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/portage.git/commit/?id=53c4e1ac66f9ccfcb68b800cc1489a5da9923bb8 commit 53c4e1ac66f9ccfcb68b800cc1489a5da9923bb8 Author: Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: 2018-10-25 14:22:54 +0000 Commit: Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2018-10-25 15:16:44 +0000 *-qa-check.d: fix entering EROOT in EAPI 7 Fix running QA checks from EROOT in EAPI 7 if the value is empty. Previously, this wrongly caused 'cd' to be run with empty value implying home directory.
