Bug 550354 – app-officeext/ooofbtools-2.35 produces numerous 'bad substitution' error messages in preinst/postinst/prerm/postrm

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Sergey S. Starikoff 2015-05-25 12:30:05 UTC]

Using recent stable sys-apps/portage (2.2.18) after upgrading my production workstation I've woundered seeing the issue, similiar with reported in bug #542796 

# emerge -1 app-officeext/ooofbtools

This package (=app-officeext/ooofbtools-2.35) doesn't use any build system at all.
So, I expect some trouble or miss in eclasses (office-ext-r1?). Although in bug #547520 similiar issue was fixed in ebuild.

Maybe notable I use per-package bashrc file to install non-standard example files.

so maybe it would be a good idea to attach that.

Created attachment 404248 [details]

Attaching file with extra functions.

Just _may_.
But _really_ it doesn't matter.
Without this file emerge displays exactly the same warning list.

Common issue seems to be fixed in =sys-apps/portage-2.2.20.
