During installation of todays updates as BINPKG, i saw this message in red letters: >>> Emerging binary (17 of 21) sys-apps/pkgcore-0.12.12::gentoo * pkgcore-0.12.12.tbz2 MD5 SHA1 size ;-) ... [ ok ] >>> Extracting info >>> Extracting sys-apps/pkgcore-0.12.12 !!! Error! Installing dynamic libraries (.so) with blank PROVIDES! >>> Installing (17 of 21) sys-apps/pkgcore-0.12.12::gentoo I find this message in this form confusing. Normally fatal errors are displayed again at the end of the emerge process, this was not the case here. However, the text of the message sounds like it is important and the user should act accordingly. Especially since it is a package from the sys-apps/ category. Reproducible: Always

I therefore reemerged sys-apps/pkgcore-0.12.12 as not binpkg to be sure to have a errorfree system.
I suspect it's harmless: [22:40:43] <+sam_> it'll probably be the dolib.so and stuff it installs, but I'm surprised if nobody else hit it before
same error message with pkgcore-0.12.13-r1: >>> Emerging binary (1 of 2) sys-apps/pkgcore-0.12.13-r1::gentoo * pkgcore-0.12.13-r1.tbz2 MD5 SHA1 size ;-) ...

Hit this today while installing binary sys-apps/pkgcore-0.12.27. Maybe that's something that could be resolved at package manager level ? See also bug #921170.

Yeah it's a false positive triggered by these non-library *.so files: > $ qlist pkgcore |grep '.*\.so$' > /usr/lib/pkgcore/ebd/helpers/0/src_install/newlib.so > /usr/lib/pkgcore/ebd/helpers/0/src_install/dolib.so Portage could suppress this false positive by checking if these are ELF files.
