Description Torsten Kaiser 2014-07-19 03:44:44 UTC

It seems bug 480862 also affects dev-texlive/texlive-latex-2012, because I get the same problem from that bug.
Trying to build the docs / the pdf via latex, it takes a long time resulting in a 2 gigabyte logfile from latex. That will also get output into build.log from the amd64 build and tee'd into the real build.log.

That resulted in my /var/tmp/portage-tmpfs filling up and an abort of the build.

Just removing the "has_version '>=dev-texlive/texlive-latex-2013'" from the fix for #480862 (epatch "${FILESDIR}/${P}-latex_hacks.patch") works for me, including an correctly looking /usr/share/doc/libcaca-dev/pdf/libcaca.pdf

This horrible mess was just pushed out to stable.

Comment 2 Berthold Humkamp 2014-07-24 10:51:05 UTC

I've got the same problem with the same version of libcaca on two different machines, both amd64.
