Bug 85597 – qtparted-0.4.4-r1 failed when installing

• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jesus Gonzalez Alvarez 2005-03-17 01:13:56 UTC]

qtparted-0.4.4-r1 compiles, make the binary package and when try to install to the root filesystem it crashes with the following error:
>>> /sbin/run_qtparted
>>> /sbin/qtparted
--- /share/
--- /share/applnk/
--- /share/applnk/System/
!!! Failed to chown/chmod/unlink in movefile()
!!! /share/applnk/System/qtparted.desktop
!!! [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/share/applnk/System/qtparted.desktop'


As seen, it tries to put some staff on /share/ instead of in /usr/share on therefore it crashes.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge qtparted
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Not installed

Expected Results:  
Install

[Comment 1 Jesus Gonzalez Alvarez 2005-03-17 01:22:15 UTC]

I forgot to say that it crashed because I have a Fat32 partition mounted on /share and therefore it can not set the correct permissions on it. Perhaps that is the reason why other hadn't have this problem before (to get the error you must have a non linux partition mounted on /share)

[Comment 2 Jesus Gonzalez Alvarez 2005-03-17 01:41:12 UTC]

Created attachment 53682 [details, diff]
ebuild patch to fix the problem

[Comment 3 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) 2005-03-17 06:48:00 UTC]

I don't think einstall should be put back, but I don't think that it should install out of /usr, carlo.

And for Jesus: shouldn't shares go into /mnt anyway?

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2005-03-17 06:50:46 UTC]

agree with seemant here ... qtparted doesnt have a good reason (imho) to be in / instead of /usr, and `einstall` should not be used when `make install DESTDIR` is a viable option

[Comment 5 Jesus Gonzalez Alvarez 2005-03-17 07:46:14 UTC]

Not all the files inside share directory are putted on /share. For example, the docs are installed in the right place (/usr/share/doc).

For seemant: yes I agree to you. The best place to mount this kind of partitions is /mnt but if I do that nobody would find this kinds of bugs ;) 

[Comment 6 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) 2005-09-02 06:46:14 UTC]

Somehow, I got stuck with this package and I don't even use anything QT-based. 
Assigning to maintainer-needed.

[Comment 7 SpanKY 2005-09-02 07:46:52 UTC]

livecd is the maintainer according to metadata

[Comment 8 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) 2005-09-02 08:36:30 UTC]

*I* am livecd@ and I just changed metadata... so umm... it needs to stay on
maintainer-needed@ as I have no intentions on maintaining this package...

[Comment 9 Caleb Tennis (RETIRED) 2006-07-31 05:05:04 UTC]

masked and going away soon.

I'm taking this package on.

[Comment 11 Kevin F. Quinn (RETIRED) 2006-08-10 02:19:38 UTC]

Mine, all mine!

[Comment 12 Kevin F. Quinn (RETIRED) 2006-08-10 03:18:15 UTC]

Please try the new qtparted-0.4.5, see if the problem persists, and report back here (and re-open the bug).
