Description Vadim A. Misbakh-Soloviov (mva) gentoo-dev 2019-05-20 07:54:09 UTC
Hi there!
I've found a bug in Qemu-4 Makefile (?) that makes it impossible to install it, when `systemtap` USE-flag is enabled.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 3 Vadim A. Misbakh-Soloviov (mva) gentoo-dev 2019-05-20 08:15:17 UTC
Additional info:

build error says that buildsystem can't create $D/usr/bin, since it's already exists.

It is true: it is a Pyhton script. Further manual checks shows, that it is `scripts/qemu-trace-stap` script.

Corrwsponding Makefile rule is:
```
L804 ifdef CONFIG_TRACE_SYSTEMTAP
L805     $(INSTALL_PROG) "scripts/qemu-trace-stap" $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)
L806 endif
```

My guess is that it doesn't check for existence of "bindir" before installing this script, so in conjunction with that syntax it leads to installing the script to the /usr with a name of "bin".

Maybe, it can be somehow related to multi-jobs (I didn't tested with MAKEOPTS=-j1)
