Description James Kyle 2004-01-28 20:57:05 UTC

The name of the package downloaded from transgaming is point2play-<version>.tgz, the name looked for by ebuild is point2play-small-<version>.tgz. I must either modify ebuild or rename package than do a ebuild package.ebuild digest to emerge. Really minor but had same problem with the last version.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download point2play, mv to /usr/portage/distfiles/
2. emerge point2play
3. Receive error of not finding the foo-small-<version> 
4. after name change/ebuild edit digest doesn't match.

np ... the small version has just the package while the other one has all the libraries (like python and crap)

Comment 4 James Kyle 2004-01-30 05:53:40 UTC

Ohhhhh, that's probably what screwed up my python install, I had to reinstall python and all the things taht depended on it.
