Description vltg0903 2014-07-21 00:19:45 UTC
Hi,

not sure if this a bug or a requirement now, but the jdk ebuilds just failed me because they now rely on xattributes (or at least on cp being built with xattr support, can't test which since I don't use them as of now):

 * The specific snippet of code:
 *       cp -R --preserve=links,mode,ownership,timestamps,xattr bin include jre lib man "${ddest}" || die;

Either that needs to be changed back again, or the ebuilds need a coreutils[+xattr] dependency, or the handbook should reflect that xattrs are expected by now.

Reproducible: Always
