Description Konrad Karczewski 2005-09-30 09:52:50 UTC

as in the description. The problem is that it looks for the plugins in a
directory /usr/lib64/ekg2/plugins and they get installed into /usr/lib64. On x86
the directory is proper - /usr/lib/ekg2/plugins so the installation procedure is
to blame. Adding a directory /usr/lib64/ekg2 and linking plugins to '..' fixes
this problem and ekg2 runs just fine (for a couple of hours now)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge net-im/ekg2 on amd64
2.
3.

Please let devs control the severity.

fixed ebuild

It turns out that using ./configure --prefix=/usr instead econf solves this
behavior - to make the change least invasive the substitution is made for amd64
only, for other archs econf remains, although I suppose there may be other
architectures affected. This ebuild (and resulting soft) was tested on amd64,
x86 and ppc

Comment 4 Konrad Karczewski 2005-12-29 08:27:35 UTC

This bug can be safely closed - current ebuild does not have this problem
