Description Tim Bentley 2003-09-14 22:59:08 UTC

When I try to emerge XFree-4.3.0-r3, I get the following result (result from
emerge with -d option, but actually this produced no more info than running
without -d):

+ echo '!!! ERROR: x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r3 failed.'
!!! ERROR: x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r3 failed.
+ echo '!!! Function epatch, Line 321, Exitcode 0'
!!! Function epatch, Line 321, Exitcode 0
+ echo '!!! Failed Patch: 0803_all_4.3.0-xkb-broken-capslock-fix-CVS11006.patch!'
!!! Failed Patch: 0803_all_4.3.0-xkb-broken-capslock-fix-CVS11006.patch!
+ echo

The .out file for the patch shows that it was unable to find the file(s) for any
of the diffs in the patch.  I am not familiar enough with portage/emerge or the
patching mechanism to be sure whether the source files haven't been unpacked
properly/in the right place, or whether the patch is not the right one for the
source files in question, or???

I thought it might be something about my system - running out of drive space,
for eg - but I can't see anything that is likely to cause this.  Over 5gb of
free space, and other emerges work fine.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. log in as root
2. emerge -d xfree-4.3.0-r3


Actual Results:  
output was as expected up until applying the patch in question, at which point
the emerge ended with errors.  Using the -d switch, I grabbed the following
text, starting from the patch application point:

Thanks!  Could have sworn there were no dupes, but looks like there were at least 2 - will look harder next time!
