This behavior changed in newer KDE build scripts, now the path to unsermake should just be added to PATH for it to work. It can be disabled by exporting UNSERMAKE=no. See also http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=unsermake > This behavior changed in newer KDE build scripts, now the path to unsermake

So... is the unsermake ebuild going to install itself into the path? Should I
submit a bug report for this?
I say this because, if it isn't obvious, emerging unsermake with these new
rules will break KDE packages unless the user does something like symlink the
unsermake executable to /usr/bin (or somesuch). And, no, adding the path to
unsermake to the PATH environment variable (from the command line) doesn't work
-- I tried that. I didn't try adding the unsermake directory to /etc/env.d ...
but none of this should be required as a manual step should it?
I don't we are able to support unsermake at the moment anyway, there are many problems with it (see bug 97428)... but everyone interested is free to provide some help with it! > I don't we are able to support unsermake at the moment anyway, there are

I don't mind if it isn't supported, but the ebuild shouldn't be trying to use
it if it doesn't work. The main problem isn't so much that kipi-plugins
doesn't work with unsermake, but that it doesn't work AND it tries to use it.
Or to put it another way: the main problem is that kipi-plugins won't emerge if
unsermake is merged.
