Bug 72810 – version bump : sys-apps/dmidecode : 2.4 => 2.5

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Stephane Loeuillet 2004-11-29 06:00:11 UTC]

2.5 went out on 11-Nov-2004

it has a broken install (it tries to install everything in /usr/local, not honoring usual PREFIX)

of course, it breaks with sandboxing :

install -d /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/man/man8
ACCESS DENIED  chmod:     /usr/local/sbin
install: Ne peut changer les permissions de `/usr/local/sbin': Permission non accord

Created attachment 44949 [details]
dmidecode-2.5.ebuild

SED-magic to hardcode prefix, removed PREFIX=${D}/usr from make install.
Compiled and running fine on x86.

Please wait two hours then sync, and you will be able to merge the new dmidecode.

Thank you for your report.
