Description Alexander Miller 2020-04-30 21:57:36 UTC
In /usr/share/doc/afl-2.56b an empty README file is installed, but the usage guide is missing. It has moved from docs/README to README.md in the tarball after the source moved to github, but the build system still installs the old, now empty file. Since it's the main documentation for the tool the ebuild really should fix that.

I see the same too.
Comment 2 Hanno Böck gentoo-dev 2020-09-04 10:09:48 UTC
True, but ultimately an upstream issue, I've filled a PR:

    app-forensics/afl: Disable clang-fast mode.
    
    This is currently broken with latest clang/llvm versions and an
    upstream bug remained unanswered. We may re-enable this
    once it's fixed upstream. This should resolve all clang-related
    bugs.
    
    Also fix doc installation (bug #720194).
