Bug 333297 – app-text/build-docbook-catalog fails with app-misc/getopt

• Product: Gentoo/Alt
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Alan Hourihane 2010-08-18 11:06:48 UTC]

When using app-misc/getopt instead of util-linux, the build of app-text/docbook-xml-dtd doesn't fail but you get a bad error message, as below....

Notice, it couldn't find getopt, yet app-misc/getopt installs a program called /usr/bin/getopt-long only.

>>> Install docbook-xml-dtd-4.3-r1 into /j/var/tmp/portage/app-text/docbook-xml-dtd-4.3-r1/image/ category app-text
>>> Completed installing docbook-xml-dtd-4.3-r1 into /j/var/tmp/portage/app-text/docbook-xml-dtd-4.3-r1/image/

It's o.k. noticed that interix hacks it in the app-misc/getopt build.

We need to do the same for *-mint*.

Can you guys fix ?

Yes, we can!
