Description Dennis Schridde 2010-06-13 17:03:09 UTC
media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612 fails to compile, probably because of a parallel make issue:
    [LN]      /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/lib64/libvpx.so
    [INSTALL] /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/lib64/libvpx.a
ln: creating symbolic link `/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/lib64/libvpx.so': No such file or directory

libvpx.so should depend on libvpx.so.0.9.0, so that the latter is created before the former. This will solve the problem that /usr/lib64 does not exist when the symlink is created.

Reproducible: Always

The next run yielded:
    [INSTALL] /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/lib64/libvpx.a
    [INSTALL] /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/include/vpx/vpx_encoder.h
    [LN]      /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/lib64/libvpx.so
    [LN]      /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/lib64/libvpx.so.0
    [LN]      /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/lib64/libvpx.so.0.9
    [INSTALL] /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libvpx-0.9.0_p20100612/image//usr/lib64/libvpx.so.0.9.0

This time libvpx.a was created (by chance, not due to a fix/workaround) before libvpx.so, which also made the issue not appear.
-> This really is a parallel-make issue.

Committed a workaround until media-video gets to add a proper patch.
Comment 4 Alexis Ballier gentoo-dev 2011-06-23 16:04:58 UTC
fixed in upstream git; workaround removed in -9999, not worth backporting imho -> fixed
