Description Sergey S. Starikoff 2013-03-23 15:41:38 UTC
Reading standard documentation I've find a little mistake:

man 5 ebuild:
...
FILES
       The /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh script.
...

$ file /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh
/usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: ERROR: cannot open `/usr/sbin/ebuild.sh' (No such file or directory)
$ which ebuild
/usr/bin/ebuild
$ file /usr/bin/ebuild
/usr/bin/ebuild: symbolic link to `../lib/portage/bin/ebuild'
$ file /usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild
/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild: Python script, ASCII text executable

I'm not resposible about the best way to fix it, but referring to an unexistent file is a bad thing.

Ops.
Excuse me.
See Also section of man 1 ebuild contains similiar issue (refers to /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh).
Comment 4 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2013-03-27 17:07:52 UTC
This is fixed in 2.1.11.59 and 2.2.0_alpha170.
Comment 5 Sergey S. Starikoff 2013-05-07 07:12:00 UTC
sys-apps/portage-2.1.11.62

Missed fix for translation (at least Russian).
man 5 ebuild (translated) is OK.
default (man 1) manual page (file /usr/share/man/ru/man1/ebuild.1.bz2) still contains outdated refer to non-existent file /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh.

Please file a new bug for Russian translations.

I was able to correct the Russian page myself, and also found one more in the English make.conf.5:

Comment 8 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2013-08-13 00:05:21 UTC
This is fixed in 2.2.0.
