Description Sumit Khanna 2004-11-10 00:25:45 UTC 
After libxml2 version 2.6.15-r1 is emerged, there are no files installed. doing an epm -ql libxml2 returns no output. This has happened on both my desktop and latop. After this happens all my gnome applications top responding becasue they can't load the libxml2 shared object library

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -u libxml2
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
libxml2 reported as being successfully emerged when it in fact installed no files

Expected Results:  
install the libxml2 library

Comment 4 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-11-14 02:21:35 UTC 
attach the build log..
Comment 5 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-11-28 07:44:25 UTC 
hmm you already had, sorry.

I really can't see much going wrong here besides there doesn't seem to much installing going on. Do other libxml2 versions install files correctly ?
Comment 6 Sumit Khanna 2004-11-28 10:10:00 UTC 
Turns out my portage tree on my local rsync mirror was corupted and as a result, so were the portage trees on all my computers. 

mv /usr/portage /tmp/portage.bad
emerge sync

:-P
