Description Nikos Chantziaras 2019-04-15 17:33:37 UTC
>>> Installing (1 of 1) net-im/skypeforlinux-8.34.0.78-r2::local
 * QA Notice: Symbolic link /usr/share/doc/skypeforlinux points to /usr/share/doc/skypeforlinux-8.34.0.78 which does not exist.

This is due to:

  dosym ${P} usr/share/doc/skypeforlinux

Needs to be:

  dosym ${PF} usr/share/doc/skypeforlinux

GitHub PR incoming.

As a side effect, the change will then produce a new emerge warning:

  * The ebuild is installing to one or more unexpected paths:
  * 
  *   /usr/share/doc/skypeforlinux

But this cannot be avoided, as Skype has this path hardcoded in the binary and tries to access it when selecting "Help->Thirrd party notices".
