Created attachment 931806 [details] build logs from first and second emerge I noticed files get installed to / when emerging dev-vcs/git with USE=tk on a fresh stage3. Only happens when git is installed for the first time with version 2.48.1 and later. Version 2.45.3 seems fine. After emerging for a second time the files get installed to their correct place in /usr/libexec/git-core Here are the steps to reproduce this: # 1. extract amd64 stage3 and setup chroot (tested with stage3-amd64-systemd-20250601T163943Z.tar.xz) # 2. setup dns and gentoo repo echo "nameserver 10.0.1.1" > /etc/resolv.conf mkdir /etc/portage/repos.conf sed 's|^sync-type = rsync$|sync-type = webrsync|g' /usr/share/portage/config/repos.conf > /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf emaint sync -r gentoo # 3. emerge dev-vcs/git for the first time (with USE=tk) USE="tk" MAKEOPTS="-j$(nproc)" emerge -a dev-vcs/git # 4. notice that git-citool, git-gui and git-gui--askpass are in / # 5. emerge dev-vcs/git again using the same command USE="tk" MAKEOPTS="-j$(nproc)" emerge -a dev-vcs/git # 6. notice that the files are gone from /, as they should be If you unmerge git after step 6 and continue at step 3, it happens again.
In git-gui/Makefile: ``` ifndef gitexecdir gitexecdir := $(shell git --exec-path) endif ifndef sharedir ifeq (git-core,$(notdir $(gitexecdir))) sharedir := $(dir $(patsubst %/,%,$(dir $(gitexecdir))))share else sharedir := $(dir $(gitexecdir))share endif endif ``` Fortunately, master has ported git-gui to meson as well.

Fortunately, for master, git-gui uses meson, so will switch that in a followup commit.
