Description Tom Kirchner 2004-10-15 08:14:58 UTC

The ebuild for edna-0.5-r3 uses the get_libdir function without inheriting eutils.  This leads to portage installing libs in /usr/edna instead of /usr/lib/edna.  The program then fails to start because it cannot import its own modules.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge edna
2. Try to start edna.
3. Watch edna fail to import ezt.

Actual Results:  
Edna cannot import a needed module and dies.

Expected Results:  
Edna runs normally, after successfully importing its modules.
