Description Burhan Khalid 2003-12-06 00:51:40 UTC

For version net-www/horde-chora-1.2-r1

This ebuild installs in the wrong directory. It should install in
/var/www/[server]/htdocs/horde/chora, but instead it installs in
/home/httpd/htdocs/horde/chora.  This is a problem because horde itself installs
in /var/www/[sever]/htdocs/horde. On my system [2.4.20-gentoo-r8], the directory
is /var/www/localhost/htdocs/horde.

According to the .ebuild file, it tries to find the http root by checking the
/etc/passwd file. On my /etc/passwd, the apache entry is :

apache:x:81:81:apache:/home/httpd:/bin/false

However, everything else installs correctly (even horde itself).

To reproduce, simply run

$ emerge horde-chora

[..emerge completes..]

$ locate chora
[..trimmed..]
/home/httpd/htdocs/horde/chora


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge hord-chora
2. locate chora
3. (or try and configure horde for chora)

Actual Results:  
Chora application isn't installed in the proper location, so horde can't be
configured for chora.

Expected Results:  
It should have installed in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/horde

Note : Because of my internet setup (HTTP Proxy controls all outbound
connections), I am running a TCP tunnel to rsync.gentoo.org that listens on the
rsync port on my local server (that's why the SYNC= variable points to my local
computer).
