When cross-compiling, the ebuild uses the directory "${WORKDIR}-native" for a copy of the source. The existence of this new directory prevents portage from cleaning up /var/tmp/portage after the build. Here is a patch to keep the default ${S} so it uses "${WORKDIR}/${P}-native" instead.
Created attachment 719601 [details, diff] fix.patch
It's unusual to see `src_unpack()` to be overridden. That is normally responsible for upstream source(s) unpacking without local modifications. I suggest plugging it to existing src_prepare() under tc-is-cross-compiler: src_prepare() { default # check_web contacts validator.w3.org sed -i -e 's/check_tables check_web/check_tables/g' \ Makefile || die "Failed to disable check_web" tc-is-cross-compiler && cp -pR "${S}" "${S}"-native }
How can I add that in src_prepare when it has already filled WORKDIR at that point? It can't recursively copy a directory into itself. Should I assume there won't be any hidden source files and run "cp -pR * ${S}/.native"?
Yeah, I think something is getting lost in translation here. David's patch looks fine to me, and is probably the simplest solution.
Aha, please ignore my comment then.
