Bug 220775 – portage-2.1.4.4: /usr/lib64/portage/bin/dodoc 'vecho' not available

• Product: Portage Development
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Dustin Polke 2008-05-07 15:11:51 UTC]

While watching output of emerge gcc, I saw that /usr/lib64/portage/bin/dodoc tries to execute 'vecho' (line 7 in the script). Guess that should be 'echo', shouldn't it? 

Reproducible: Always

No, vecho is an internal portage function (defined in isolate-functions.sh)

Then perhaps dodoc should source isolated-functions.sh before using the functions it defines?

Thanks David,
haven't had the time to investigate the issue yet. REOPENing for further consideration.

Just emerge gcc on my sparc box.
For completeness, here are the last 10 line of the build log:

Thanks, this is fixed in 2.1.5_rc8.
