https://blogs.gentoo.org/ago/2020/07/04/gentoo-tinderbox/ Issue: net-mail/mailutils-3.16 installs files into unexpected paths (PYTHON-3.12-SYSTEM). Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: python-3.12_tinderbox) NOTE: (PYTHON-3.12-SYSTEM) in the summary means that the bug was found on a machine that runs python-3.12 but this bug MAY or MAY NOT BE related to the new python version
Created attachment 868442 [details] build.log build log and emerge --info
not Python 3.12 related acually it is an option which may be passed to configure: > … > --with-mh-bindir Set the directory where to install the MH binaries. > If it starts with '/' it is taken as an absolute > path specification, otherwise ${prefix} is prepended > to it. (Default: ${exec_prefix}/bin/mu-mh) which causes the complained files currently to end up in /usr/bin/mu-mh/*
I agree that it is not ideal. However, - changing binary location is not to be done lightly. It might break existing scripts - some of the binaries have pretty generic names (burst, folder etc). so we will need to change their names creating inconsistencies in the ecosystem - other distros also seem to keep them in /usr/bin/mu-mh/ directory so that dir is somewhat expected and we will be again creating an outlier so, I lean towards not fixing this. closing. please reopen if you feel strongly otherwise
