Description Narada Sage 2003-05-10 15:44:12 UTC

Hello.  I'm not sure if this is a bug but when my phoenix-bin was upgraded and 
moved from /usr/lib to /opt the /opt/phoenix/plugins directory was not 
symlinked to /usr/lib/nsbrowser/plugins as it was with the previous release of 
phoenix-bin.  The directory /opt/phoenix/plugins was created with only 
libnullplugin.so.

Hi Dhruba.

Hm, that's strange - I got the same /usr/lib/phoenix/plugins with only libnullplugin.so in it even with the non-moved version. As I see both were missing  inherit statment which I just added (had to fixup the corresponding eclass as well, to make it work with packages outside /usr/lib).
How long ago did you emerge the -0.5 (non -r1) version?

Anyway, this is fixed now, please test.

George

Hello.  In response to your question I noticed this problem when emerging the recent 0.5-r1 version.  I have just re-emerged 0.5-r1 after sync and it does symlink to /usr/lib/nsbrowser/plugins correctly.  Good work with modifying ebuild and eclass.  I hadn't realised it would require such change.  This will help with the rollout of phoenix 0.6 when it released in the near future.  Many thanks.

Hello.  Can someone close this very old bug which has got reopened by accident?
 Thanks.
