busybox-symlinks.patch
saner to just move the symlink stuff to pkg_postinst() where it belongs
please try the attached patch ... i havent tested it
In <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.user.german/27922> a user built a package via quickpkg. Installation of the package fails because busybox-links.tar isn't packaged. Moving files in $D at pkg_preinst almost ever breaks `quickpkg` packages. Doesn't really bother me where it goes, as long as it works :). This (critical/high) bug is now unsolved for 9 years. Is it already fixed in the latest version and can be closed? Code as changed significantly since ... and based of reading of the ebuild it looks fixed. I'm just marking this INVALID since I don't think it applies any longer. |
