when using portage to populate a chrooted environment within an already functioning gentoo installation using: ROOT=/path/to/chroot emerge program the webapp eclass ignores the ROOT=/path/to/chroot option. Specifically, if using a chrooted apache/php installation, one is unable to install any php web program (horde and squirrelmail are the two main ones I've worked with, but I know others fail as well) that uses the webapp eclass because rather than installing (most specifically, when performing the last line of webapp_src_install -- touch "${D}/${MY_APPDIR}/${INSTALL_CHECK_FILE}" -- and then checking for it further along) in the chroot, the webapp eclass installs as if ROOT=/ instead of ROOT=/path/to/chroot. So going through an example: ROOT=/path/to/chroot emerge horde <ebuild output> * * This ebuild did not call webapp_src_install() at the end * of the src_install() function * * Please log a bug on http://bugs.gentoo.org * * You should use emerge -C to remove this package, as the * installation is incomplete * !!! <install failed> this happens specifically because webapp_src_install did a touch to /usr/share/webapps/horde/2.2.7/ instead of /path/to/chroot/usr/share/webapps/horde/2.2.7/ and because the ebuild correctly created /path/to/chroot/usr/share/webapps/horde/2.2.7/ and NOT /usr/share/webapps/horde/2.2.7/ touch is unable to create a file there and the webapp_src_install fails. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. ROOT=/path/to/chroot emerge www-apps/***** 2. 3. Actual Results: * * This ebuild did not call webapp_src_install() at the end * of the src_install() function * * Please log a bug on http://bugs.gentoo.org * * You should use emerge -C to remove this package, as the * installation is incomplete * !!! <install failed> Expected Results: ebuild successfully merged Portage 2.0.51-r8 (default-linux/x86/2004.0, gcc-3.3.2, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.4.20-gentoo-r1 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20-gentoo-r1 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1700+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.10 Python: dev-lang/python-2.2.2,dev-lang/python-2.3.3-r1 [2.3.3 (#1, May 21 2004, 22:06:36)] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.2.2, 2.3.3-r1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r4 sys-devel/automake: 1.8.3 sys-devel/binutils: 2.14.90.0.8-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.4.3-r4 virtual/os-headers: 2.4.19, 2.4.21-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" ACCEPT_LICENSE="" ARCH="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" BASH_ENV="/etc/spork/is/not/valid/profile.env" CC="gcc" CCACHE_SIZE="2G" CFLAGS="-march=i686 -O2 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CLASSPATH="/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/jre/lib/rt.jar:."

Updated eclass now in Portage. Should fix this problem. Best regards, Stu
