Description Cesar Crusius 2004-02-27 23:12:25 UTC
Emerging lprof goes through the entire compilation routine but fails to install the package. One of the problem seems to be that the plugins can't be updated or something of the sort. I'm using QT 3.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge lprof
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The package doesn't get installed. 

Expected Results:  
The package should install successfully.

I can't seem to be ablo capture the emerge output, but here are relevant messages:

cp: cannot stat `icc2it8.exe': No such file or directory

(the ACCESS DENIED messages abound)

Please emerge sync, then re-try emerging this package.
Comment 3 Cesar Crusius 2004-02-29 20:55:03 UTC
It works, thanks! The message

QSettings::sync: failed to open '/usr/qt/3/etc/settings/qt_plugins_3.3rc.tmp' for writing

still pops up but the package installs successfully. I'll mark it as fixed.

Installed successfully.
